Episode description

Nathan Oldfield has journeyed into the depths of grief, and back, to make surf films brimming with reverence for the extraordinary beauty of life.

He has crafted six award winning films, most recently The Heart & The Sea, and The Church of the Open Sky, which  earned the Special Honor for Most Heart at the Xpedition Film Festival in Colorado. 

Nathan is also a poet and meditation teacher, and parallel to his creative life,  has spent 25 years as a school teacher. 

He spoke with us about losing his daughter, Willow, how to 'stand' in love, his favourite method for keeping water off the lens port, and being on the precipice of making his next film.
