MINDS IN THE WATER
Five years in the making, Minds In The Water is the story of one surfer’s international
journey to help protect dolphins, whales and their ocean environment. Through the
charismatic journey of one person’s life, witness an adventure spanning the globe from
Australia and the Galapagos to Tonga, Alaska and Japan. See first hand how one surfer’s
quest to protect dolphins and whales has blossomed into a movement of like minds. The
film captures a key moment in one person’s life when apathy is no longer an option.
Pro surfer Dave “Rasta” Rastovich went from an ocean minded admirer to an ocean
activist when he embarked on a personal mission to help stop the worldwide commercial
slaughter of dolphins and whales. While unsure at first, Dave quickly found his activist
sea legs and helped build a core team of filmmakers, journalists, musicians, eco-pirates,
celebrity surfers and even a professional mermaid to help spread the message. All this has
been documented in the film, Minds In The Water.
Post-film discussion with Surfrider Foundation members
Surfrider Oahu engages in various missions to protect the ocean environment
that likely has brought many of its members to Hawaii's fine shores. This film
inspires us all to keep doing, and keep doing more. Each year, Surfrider Oahu
honors people who are working to make a positive difference in the world with the
John Kelly Award event. One recipient of this award tells his story in "Minds In The Water".
As Dave Rastovich says: “As ocean people, it is our privilege to be the custodians of our coastlines.
The film documents our attempt at fulfilling that role as we traveled to surfing locations around the world.
Cetaceans are the ultimate and original surfers. They are our ocean kin and it is our role to do what
we can to protect their well being.” This is a must-see movie for surfers and ocean enjoyers alike.
We look forward to seeing you there and please join Surfrider to help us protect what we love.
