Iara (2018)
Overview
Iara, a beautiful young woman, sometimes described as having green hair, light brown or copper-colored skin (as that of an Indigenous Amerindian from Brazil) and brown eyes, connected to a fish body…typically thought of as a Mermaid. When she felt a man around she would start to sing gently to lure him. Once under the spell of the Iara, a man would leave his family to live with her underwater forever. Iara is a free interpretation of this old tale, but this time with a Sapphic twist.
