Pha-Q woke

Wokeness: 1/5 Overall Score: 4/5

I didn't notice anything overly woke other than the ships first mate in real life was male and was gender swapped in the movie to female for
no reason other than DEI. The acting is mostly good and as far as I was able to tell the story seemed to be very accurate to the true events.
None of the usual overblown Hollywood 'lets make it better and add a bunch of things that never happened' nonsense.
It's a good story and an entertaining watch.

Not for the claustrophobic !

First fascinating aspect of that film was the insight into the daily lives of those who work in one of the most dangerous jobs in the world: saturation divers. It's quite a mind-boggling job, and not at all well known, it's true. These divers work on underwater pipelines. At the bottom of the sea, there are 32,000 km of pipelines to monitor, repair and weld. I would compare them to astronauts in the abyss. Because they work at such great depths, to avoid decompression accidents, they live on a boat but in caissons, pressurised capsules for several weeks. They sleep, eat and live there. Just long enough for their bodies to get used to the pressure so they can carry out their dives. It's an extreme job, as technical as it is dangerous, requiring impeccable physical condition, a mind of steel and a hell of a lot of composure.

‘Last Breath’ plunges us - quite literally - into this extraordinary world. The film recreates the oppressive atmosphere of these missions. The darkness, the silence, the weight of the water, the amplified mechanical noises - it's a total immersion in a world you'd never suspect. And it raises real questions about life, death, solidarity and our relationship with risk. A human adventure film, in the deepest sense of the word. But clearly not for the claustrophobic !
