Proximity

About This Movie

Proximity takes you on a ride with eight surfers, both legends and new blood, as they travel to some seriously far-flung spots. The film's tone is laid-back yet introspective, showcasing not just the thrill of the waves but also the personal journeys of these athletes. You get a real sense of their connection to the ocean and the culture of surf. The pacing can be contemplative at times, allowing moments of reflection between the rides. There's a rawness to the cinematography that, combined with the natural sounds of the sea, pulls you into their world. Practical effects are minimal, but the surfing speaks for itself—its focus is on the experience, the pursuit of new waves, and what surfing means to each of them.
