A once-renowned novelist living in quiet isolation becomes convinced that his life is no longer governed by choice, but by an unseen logic he can neither escape nor fully understand. As he struggles to write his next work, strange coincidences, fractured memories, and repeating patterns begin to blur the line between authorship and fate, drawing him into a cycle of obsession, violence, and self-sabotage. Moving between eras, identities, and states of consciousness, the story follows a man confronting the possibility that he is both the creator of his world and merely a character trapped inside it—forced to decide whether meaning is something we write for ourselves, or something that writes us.
Logline: A once-celebrated writer, convinced his life is shaped by forces beyond his control, spirals into creative obsession and self-destruction as past and present collapse into a single, unsettling pattern.
Cold Blows the Wind is a mythic narrative framed through memory and oral history. When unprecedented activity returns to the ocean, an old story resurfaces — one carried by sailors, shaped by time, and finally written down by a woman who understands she is not its author, only its witness. At the center is a sailor and a mermaid, bound not by romance but by consequence, memory, and the sea’s quiet authority. The film moves between present-day observation and an older world that resists explanation, exploring how stories survive when they are spoken, not proven. Cold Blows the Wind treats myth as lived experience rather than fantasy, and asks what it means to remember something that was never meant to be fully understood.
Logline: When the ocean begins to return to life, an old maritime myth resurfaces—carried by aging sailors, recorded by a reluctant witness, and drawn back into the present by a man whose resemblance to the past awakens something ancient beneath the surface.
