Entanglements: Observations On Beach Relations

‘Entanglements’ explores the relationships between mass tourism and a beach. In the Spanish beach town Calella de Palafrugell, emerging tourism changed the landscape and human experiences of nature. The film is a collection of observations of the beach as a place of leisure and visitors’ engagement with their surroundings.
