About This Event
Climb aboard for a night of ocean adventure! The Ocean Film Festival World Tour features a new collection of the world’s most incredible ocean films! Bodyboarding is often seen as surfing’s uncool sibling… but that’s about to change. Bodyboarder Shane Ackerman catches daunting waves that others shy away from. While pro surfers bask in fame and fortune, Shane is a crane operator by day, proving that passion transcends financial reward. For him, work is merely a means to an end – a way to fund the moments of absolute liberation found on his bodyboard. Deep in the Arctic Circle, a team of researchers are following the largest gathering of killer whales in the world. Narrator Alexandra Johnston joins marine conservationists and whale-watching vessels in their exploration of these magnificent creatures, aiming to understand what makes this population so unique, and their critical role in the Arctic ecosystem.
