Patagonia is bringing attention to the life story of legendary surfer Wayne Lynch in Craig Griffin’s film Uncharted Waters: The Personal History of Wayne Lynch.
It traces his upbringing in the seaside town of Lorne on Victoria’s south western coast and his turbulent experiences as a ‘conscientious objector’ on the run from conscription and the Vietnam War. Ultimately, it is about an extremely gifted individual with an intense connection to the Southern Ocean, whose approach to surfing has been a spiritual journey often putting him at odds with the surfing subculture and society in general.
The film plays June 20, 2013 at Broad Theater in Santa Monica, California, June 21, 2013 at the world famous La Paloma Theatre in Encinitas, California and June 27, 2013 at Village East Cinema, in New York City.
