Trailer
​
The full film, screened at presentations and events, offers an intimate look into Karin’s daily life as she navigates the challenges of living with a rare illness.
​
At its heart, the story reveals how the ocean becomes her sanctuary. Through surfing, Karin finds the strength, energy, and resilience she needs to face each day — while rediscovering moments of pure joy.
​
The film also features powerful interviews with former Surf World Champion Pauline Menczer, alongside
pro-surfers Danny Wills and Ozzie Wright, as well as insights from health professionals, neighbours, and members of Karin’s community.
Together, their voices paint a moving portrait of courage, connection, and the healing power of the ocean.
