Magnolia Pictures: Surfwise*

Now here is a film to look forward too. Surfwise is a documentary about Surfer Dorian “Doc” Paskowitz by director Doug Pray.
The film premiered at the 2007 Toronto International film Festival and is due to be released in May 2008.

Here is the content summary from the Apple trailer website:

“Like many American outsider-adventurers, Dorian “Doc” Paskowitz set out to realize a utopian dream. Abandoning a successful medical practice, he sought self-fulfillment by taking up the nomadic life of a surfer. But unlike other American searchers like Thoreau or Kerouac, Paskowitz took his wife and nine children along for the ride, all eleven of them living in a 24 foot camper. Together, they lived a life that would be unfathomable to most, but enviable to anyone who ever relinquished their dreams to a straight job. The Paskowitz Family proved that America may be running out of frontiers, but it hasn’t run out of frontiersman. “
