Double Tide documents the work of a female clam digger in the mudflats of coastal Maine. Expanding the focus of Lockhart’s recent films Lunch Break and Exit, Double Tide creates a portrait of a relatively unseen and singular form of labor. 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.
