Surfwise

CriticsCritics: 85
AudienceAudience: 6.9

The inspiring and tumultuous story of 85-year old surfer, health advocate and sex guru, Dr. Dorian "Doc" Paskowitz, his wife Juliette, and their nine children who were all home-schooled and raised in a small camper on the beach, where they surfed and had to adhere to the strict diet and lifestyle of animals in the wild.

My take

A documentary following the eccentric Paskowitz family and their nomadic surfing lifestyle across America, capturing decades of unconventional parenting, family dynamics, and the pursuit of endless waves. It's a sun-soaked, intimate portrait of radical freedom and the complicated bonds that hold a unique family together.
