WOMEN & THE WIND is a project aimed at igniting the flames of curiosity and adventure which lay dormant within so many of us, by deepening our understanding of the synergy between nature and humanity—and by doing so radically. This project is led by a group of women and realized through a voyage across the North Atlantic on Mara Noka, a 50-year-old wooden catamaran.
The trans-Atlantic voyage was captured through the eyes and lens of filmmaker Alize Jireh. Throughout 30 days of calms, storms, setbacks, and unimaginable scenery, Alize’s camera kept rolling. The ever-changing state of the sea, in all its splendour, and duality—shifting between gentleness and rage—reflects our own humanity and opens us to contemplation on our relationship with the most unknown parts of ourselves and the planet.
L E N A documents the journey of Lena Kemna, the first German, female big wave surfer. Led by the fascination for the biggest waves of her life, and guided by the sombre respect for the power of the ocean, this film does not shy away from the complexities in telling Lena´s story of purpose and persistence in Nazaré.
