STAND is a surf & SUP film about a threatened coast. In partnership with Quiksilver, STAND is an environmental film that rallies against the potential harmful effects that business ventures evoke on natural habitats. Showcasing the west coast of BC and what’s at stake with the proposed Enbridge Northern Gateway pipeline – tanker route. Taking place in Haida Gwaii, Great Bear Rainforest, Bella Bella and Vancouver Island; STAND takes the viewers on a journey through the coast showcasing the rich First Nations culture and the incredible terrestrial and oceanic environments of the coast. Outline STAND has three main characters: Norm Hann, who paddles 350km along the east coast of Haida Gwaii visiting the Haida Watchman sites along the way; Raph Bruhwiler, who lives the quinessential west coast life in Tofino BC, with surf at his back door and an ocean that feeds the family; and the students from Bella Bella Highschool woodworking class, who’s journey is followed as they build standup paddleboards in class. STAND is supported by Quiksilver Waterman, Pacific Wild, Ikelite Underwater Systems, Wefi surfboards, Coast Mountain Culture, SBC Surf, The Escape Route, Boardworks, Kalavida Surf Shop, and Standup Magazine
