Congratulations! Why did you make your film?
I made the film because Paige Alms has a great personality and she is inspiring other people in life, especially women.
Imagine I’m a member of the audience. Why should I watch this film?
You should watch this film if you want to see a woman who is training hard to fulfil her passion in the surfing world and inspiring the younger generation.
How have the script and film evolved over the course of their development?
It's been following Paige Alms and her journey to surf the biggest wave but even more so on a personal level to capture who she actually is.
What type of feedback have you received so far?
So far it's been great feedback and people just want more!
Has the feedback surprised or challenged your point of view?
I appreciate all feedback, even the more difficult feedback is the best feedback in the long run.
What are you looking to achieve by having your film more visible on www.wearemovingstories.com?
Spreading the word of Paige Alms will generate in a better world for sure.
Who do you need to come on board (producers, sales agents, buyers, distributors, film festival directors, journalists) to amplify this film’s message?
Director or Paige Alms would be best to talk about it all more in detail.
What type of impact and/or reception would you like this film to have?
I want people to see that women can get what they want in the adventure world as well. I want people to feel inspired to do things they maybe don't think they can do, especially younger women.
What’s a key question that will help spark a debate or begin a conversation about this film?
Can you reach your passion and goals if you are a woman in the adventure world?
