A new freediving film will premiere in Canada at Hot Docs.
The film, “7 Beats Per Minute,” is the work of Vancouver-based director Yuqi Kang. The film charts the journey of freediving champion Jessea Lu as she returns to the site of her near-death experience.
The movie features some stunning imagery and truly raw interviews that explore the psychology and pressure elite athletes face, especially in the face of impending disaster.
