Documentary Screening Series- "Resurface" | Veterans Day

November 20 | Resurface

🌊 Documentary Screening: Resurface

Presented by Mid Michigan College’s Inclusion, Diversity, Equity & Action (IDEA) Committee and sponsored by Laker Life.

After years of nightmares, depression, and seizures, Iraq war veteran Bobby Lane could see no way out of his trauma other than suicide. Then he met Van Curaza, a former big wave surfer who had since founded Operation Surf and dedicated his life to helping veterans find solace in surfing. Backed by research on the healing power of the ocean, organizations such as Operation Surf and the Jimmy Miller Memorial Foundation are helping veterans cope with physical and mental trauma. The Netflix original documentary short Resurface, directed by Joshua Izenberg (Slomo) and Wynn Padula, tells the story of Bobby and other veterans who have experienced the powerful and prescriptive effects of surf on the traumas of war.
