Overview:	SEA ROOT's title refers to the protagonist, Root. It also describes the character's ties with the sea, the strength of whose attachments can be seen in: Him and his parents (who are played by Yip Chun and Lee Fung) opting to live--not just work--on boats (rather than land); along with the reticent man's tendency, for much of his life, to look to the sea rather than to people for comfort and solace as well as companionship. This under-rated character-driven film excels on multiple fronts. Its "slice-of-life" approach combined with unique plot and excellent acting make it a very enjoyable and interesting movie.
