Double Tide documents a female clam digger in the mudflats of coastal Maine, as she wades slowly through the water. Filmed on the rare occasion in which low tide occurs twice within daylight hours, once at dawn and once at dusk, Double Tide takes as its subject a worker whose job is defined by the most elemental and unchangeable forces of nature.
Dir. Sharon Lockhart. 99mins, 2009 + Q&A, US
