Heart of the sea

New partnership | Damien Rider

By news

Damien Rider is an endurance athlete, author, filmmaker and speaker, on a continuous quest to raise awareness of childhood abuse.

His two films Heart of the Sea and Rise Above are now available through Meadow Media.

Rise Above explores Damien’s latest endurance challenges, following is epic 800km paddle from Coolangatta beach to the Gold Coast, a feat detailed in subsequent documentary Heart of the Sea. Going on to skateboard across Route 66, paddle and run non-stop around Phuket and ride a 1950’s rickshaw for over 260 kilometres, Damien is a true example of perseverance and dedication.

Each challenge thrusts his cause into the spotlight and the film proves a powerful story of hope and one man’s journey to rise above and reach out.

Heart of the sea

Heart of the Sea chronicles Damien’s incredible 800km paddle boarding challenge through the shark invested coast of Australia. Interwoven with his personal story, Heart of the Sea is a heartbreaking and deeply moving tale of a tragic past that has fuelled a desire to help others.

Paddling 800km over 17 days on a solo mission, he set off on what many thought to be an impossible journey. After spending months turning his body into an endurance machine, during his feat, Damien was alone with limited food and water, suffering fatigue and severe hunger.

Ultimately inspiring, Heart of the Sea proves that the power of authenticity and vulnerability, is the magic ingredient for healing, reaching and helping others.

Heart of the Sea and Rise Above are available now for audiences worldwide.

Turning to our documentary slate and we offer two new heart-warming tales exploring the spirit of humanity and the determination of humans to facilitate significant change and growth – both personally, and as role models for those around them.

A Head Full of Doubt, takes in seven years of the incredible success of the B.A.M program in Chicago. Previously considered the murder capital of America, this engaging documentary showcases the beauty that comes from mentoring youth in a city that needs it most. Curated and developed by Tony DiVittorio, and inspired by his youth without a father figure, the B.A.M program has made headlines world wide for its encouragement and guidance of kids on the border of adulthood.

Shot across three continents and over a five year journey, The World’s Best Film follows twelve individuals striving for greatness. Thailand gives us the World’s best taxi driver while in Sweden we are introduced to the World’s best town planner. This is a traveling tale celebrating the human endeavor to be the best you can be. Fun, quirky and possibly The World’s Best Film!

 

This year has produced many things. The greatest, we think, is the many stories emerging, telling tales of community spirit and collaboration. Helping the vulnerable and passing it forward, during what has been a difficult and unprecedented time for businesses and us as humans.

We have curated some of the best Covid stories in our new Short Content selection. Food Forward delivers three short documentaries shining a light on businesses adapting to the pandemic driven food supply chain issues, in the US. Highlighting three sectors – The Plate, The Sea and The Farm – Food Forward delivers on all fronts, with stories of community and businesses coming together to help each other survive.

Straight from a remote Navajo community, comes a story of survival in Covid Nations. When an Australian naturopath and herbalist, finds herself in the centre of an indigenous community with limited health facilities, she rolls up her sleeves and begins educating and steering the group through the only pandemic any of them have known.

Covid Nations articulates the many challenges of remote communities navigating Covid with little access to mainstream healthcare. Beautifully shot, this short documentary is a thought-provoking tale, offering an alternative viewpoint of the 2020 story.

You can view sizzles of all our new releases here.

A head full of doubt documentary

A Head Full of Doubt

By documentary, news

We are excited to add the powerful documentary A Head Full of Doubt to our catalogue in the lead up to MIPCOM.

In what has been a year of bad news stories, A Head Full of Doubt, set in Chicago, offers hope to a generation of kids desperate for direction and encouragement.

In Chicago, 2008 was a violent year culminating with high murder rates, escalating gang activity and low graduation rates. This set the stage for what is best described as the city’s tipping point.

On Chicago’s south and west sides a large percentage of boys grow up lacking fathers figures. Enter Tony DiVittorio, a high school councillor, who set out to lead a generation of youth by creating a male character development program called B.A.M. (Becoming A Man).

His goal was to build men of integrity by focusing on core values like respect, responsibility and self-determination.

Over seven years, filmmaker Jason Weisner began documenting the B.A.M program and Tony DiVittorio’s personal story of empowerment, which continues to help young men today.

What emerged is an inspirational documentary about a generation of youth who are desperately searching for someone to believe in them.

Now available for worldwide release, A Head Full of Doubt is a poignant reminder of the power of humanity.
