Rated
PG-13
When a global pandemic decimates the tourism industry across the Hawaiian Islands it means no travel, no tourists, and no surf lessons. Surf instructor Bull Kotter (or "Bully" as he's lovingly called) suddenly finds his small business pushed to the brink. So he turns to his community - not for help or a handout, but to give back. From surf culture, to ocean respect, to kindness, Uncle Bully is translating etiquette in the line-up into etiquette in life.
The film grants you "surf-side access" to Uncle Bully’s unique approach, on the water and reaching young minds with his power of being present. Little faces, once fearful and isolated, wash-over with joy and liberation, and that new glow of confidence - as surfers and as humans.
Q&A following the film with:
Leah Warshawski - Producer/Director
Todd Soliday - Director/DP/Editor
"Bully" Kotter
Surf Instructor/Life Coach
