Synopsis

Above the Sargasso Sea, scenes reveal a vast body of water without land boundaries. This area has a rich history intertwined with ecology and mythology, dating back to Juan de Bermúdez’s 1505 expedition. The film captures the vibrant flora and fauna of the region. It contrasts the natural beauty with the impacts of human activity, showing cycles of destruction and renewal. Directed by Anna Kipervaser, "No Garden Beyond" runs for 11 minutes and presents a complex view of this unique marine environment.
