Sandsailors is a high-speed film packed with mayhem and action, inspired by science fiction comics and anime. Despite its harsh aesthetics, the story is defined by a soft emotional core. In the face of a bloodthirsty crowd, Emery and Alison’s love for each other motivates them to think beyond the “one survivor” rule. In a world that seems overwhelmingly violent, our connections to one another become our hope. The sailors’ relationship represents that hope, even as the cruel forces that surround the arena threaten to doom them.
