The Screen Guide

A sport born from saving lives and a race invented in a movie; athletes Ali Day and Lana Rogers push their minds and bodies to the limit preparing for Australia’s iconic ocean endurance race; The Coolangatta Gold. Ali, arguably the greatest surf lifesaver of all time, aims for his tenth and final title but must overcome an ageing body and a field of younger competitors like brash young gun Conner Maggs, all desperate to beat him. Lana trains through the fear of collapsing, as she did in the 2021 race, to win her third title while Japanese lifesaver, Haruka Nakamura, moves to Australia for the thrill and joy of being part of this tough Australian sport. An intimate story about extraordinary people.
