WWW.ACTIONTRAIL.COM
SHORT DESCRIPTION:
Heart of a Soul Surfer offers a personal
perspective into the true story and life of
Bethany Hamilton, a promising young surfer who
discovers her purpose in life as she overcomes the
loss of her arm to a 14-ft tiger shark off the
coast of Kauai, Hawaii on October 31, 2003.
LONG DESCRIPTION:
Bethany Hamilton, the young teenage girl who made
headlines for swiftly resuming her amateur surfing
career after losing an arm in a 2003 shark attack
in the waters off Hawaii, shares her story to
hundreds of teens.
The Christian teen was just 13 years old when the
14-foot tiger shark attacked her just over three
years ago on the North Shore of Kauai. The shark
also took a 16-inch bite out of her surfboard.
Bethany new documentary, "Heart of a Soul Surfer,"
which is being released by Walking on Water, a
Christian surf company based in San Diego,
chronicles how Bethany refused to walk away from
the ocean sport, despite the amputation of her
left arm. Instead, the incident compelled Bethany
to reach inside herself to discover her purpose in
life. Emboldened by her faith, Bethany was back on
her board just three weeks later.
"The main focus (of the film) is the shark attack
and how God has used that as a platform to give
her an opportunity to share the gospel," said Mike
Doyle, director of outreach for Walking on Water.
The young surfer's determined story captured
attention nationwide, resulting in media
appearances on Oprah, the Today Show and a variety
of other shows. She also wrote the bestselling
biography, "Heart of a Soul Surfer," which was
released in 2004.
According to the producers, the film captures her
transformation and digs deep into the heart of
Bethany's abiding faith in God, tackling difficult
questions such as 'Why does God allow bad things
to happen in our lives?'
Doyle said he believes surfing—with its
thunderous waves—is a perfect metaphor for the
Christian lifestyle.
"There is something spiritual about surfing,
something that draws you," he said.
Actual footage
The film's producers included exclusive surf and
family footage of Bethany before and after the
attack, including her first attempts at surfing
with one arm. Many of the frames where shot by
Becky Baumgartner, the girlfriend of Bethany's
brother Noah. Also on film is Bethany's win at the
2005 NSSA National Surfing Championship, just 19
months after the attack. Walking on Water founder
Bryan Jennings, a professional surfer, served as
co-producer of the documentary.
"Heart of a Soul Surfer is a powerful story told
from the heart of a young woman with great passion
and dedication to God," the film's promo material
said.
Doyle said Bethany, who plans to turn professional
this year, is coming into her own at a time when
women are entering the sport in droves. Doyle
attributes the influx to the 2002 secular film
"Blue Crush,"—which chronicled three girls
surfing on Hawaii's North Shore and earned more
than $40 million at the box office—as one of the
driving forces behind the increased popularity of
surfing among girls. He said new clothing lines
for women, including the mega-seller, Roxy, have
also played a role.
"There is an explosion of female surfers now," he
said. "It lit a fire under a lot of girls."
