A deep dive into the women who made a life underwater — and built an island above it. Haenyeos were never just divers. They were providers, systems, and quiet proof of survival. Today, they’re still there. Just less often becoming.

At first glance, Exhuma appears straightforward — a familiar rites-gone-wrong story. But if you pause and question what you’re seeing, the experience shifts. What initially looks like a horror film slowly reveals itself as something worth taking notes from.

Exhuma doesn’t teach these elements; it assumes them — and in doing so, offers far more than it explains.
