In Corners of the Earth: Kamchatka, a pair of filmmakers join a pair of surfers on a trek to the far east of Russia in search of new waves—not knowing the country would invade Ukraine. Playing in select cinemas nationwide (see here for locations) from 3 August, we’ve got 10 in-season double passes to give away.
Corners of the Earth: Kamchatka
Here’s the official synopsis: Follow filmmakers Spencer Frost and Guy Williment and pro-surfers Letty Mortenson and Fraser Dovell as they journey to Kamchatka in the far east of Russia in search of new waves along the frozen, unexplored coastline. Bordered by the Pacific Ocean and the Sea of Okhotsk with more than 150 volcanoes (29 active) the Kamchatka Peninsula in Far Eastern Russia is as remote as it is unique. After 2 years of planning, the trip was almost over before it started. An hour before boarding their flight to Moscow, Russia invaded Ukraine. At a time when the world was seeing the worst of human nature, these guys flew behind the iron curtain and found, to their surprise, the best of it. Mi-8 helicopters, skidoos, frozen campsites, and frozen bank accounts, this surf trip quickly became far more than anyone could imagine.
