Inspired by the rich maritime heritage of the British Seaside, "Morva" plays homage to the ocean. The name itself, drawn from Cornish roots, paying tribute to the sea by delving into the tales of the West Coast, with its storied history of pirates, the infamous Jamaica Inn, and the whispered legends of treasure-laden ships, this piece breathes life into the mysteries of the maritime realm.
At its heart, "Morva" is a tapestry of nautical nostalgia and coastal charm. Anchored by Neptune, the mythical god of the sea, and adorned with echoes of seaside whimsy—the creaking wooden rollercoaster, the steadfast lighthouse, the playful beach balls—each element invites viewers to embark on a voyage of imagination and discovery.
Stepping into the frame is Ingrid Bergman, the Swedish luminary whose illustrious career spanned five decades. Renowned for her timeless performance in "Casablanca" (1942), Bergman lends her ethereal presence to ‘Morva’, adding a touch of cinematic magic to this seascape and emerges as a testament to the enduring romance between land and sea, and the timeless allure of coastal adventures.
