Somewhat off-topic, but by way of coincidence:
Neil Mcenery-West, a young film-maker from Brighton, here in the UK, has just won Best International Director in the New York Independent International Film and Video Festival for his film called ... Undertow

About Undertow :

Asked about the meaning of the title Neil Mcenery (in one of the Q&A interviews) said:
“The title went through several different versions but Undertow seemed to sum up best what the film represented. It’s a reference to the unconscious emotional process that takes place throughout an experience of loss. It’s a reference to the underlying hidden meaning behind some words and actions that drift just beneath the surface. It’s also a reference to the water theme in the film. The story repeatedly references a violent/tragic event connected with water that is never fully revealed. There’s a danger and an allusion to death within the title as a result.”
Sounds like he'd be quite at home here.
