The Deepest Breath

This truly immersive documentary explores the competitive and dangerous world of free-diving, where a person dives under water on a single breath of air. Italian Alessia Zecchini has set national and world records, and we follow her journey alongside Irish safety support diver Stephen Keenan. Laura McGann’s documentary uses a narrative device that suggests a tragedy will take place, but it’s not immediately clear when it will strike, and to whom. But once the events do unfold, you will be both moved and horrified.
