ABOUT THE FILM

Turbulent Hawaiian waves, tempestuous family life and the twin challenges of opioid addiction and bipolar disorder made Andy Irons what he was: a top international competitive surfer and a very complicated young man. This unfiltered story of Andy’s passionate life as told by those closest to him – his wife Lyndie, his brother Bruce, his friends and competitors – is an intimate and exciting dive into the three-time world champion’s private world, from his blue-collar background to the crest of his success and the internal demons that pushed him to the edge and threatened to bring it all crashing down.
