- Directed by:
- Kevin Drew and Anthony Seck

- Kevin Drew
- Cillian plays:
- Son
Synopsis:
This enigmatic, nearly dialogue-free, 16-minute short features Cillian Murphy in a wintry landscape as the grieving son of a resurrected Leslie Feist and departing David Fox.
Of Note:
Inspired by and featuring Feist's song of the same name, The Water is the first short film from rock musician/director Kevin Drew of Canadian band Broken Social Scene. The collaborative nature of this piece is due in part to the mutual admiration society of Cillian and Drew; Cillian is a big fan of Broken Social Scene, and he and Drew hit it off when Drew interviewed him for Under the Radar in 2007. After the making of The Water, Dazed and Confused interviewed Drew and captured Cillian and Feist in conversation.
