Sarah Gerhardt became a star in the surfing universe in 1998 as the first woman to slice across a monster wave at Northern California’s legendary Maverick’s. Media covereageand adulation followed, but Sarah’s dramatic journey frompoverty and despair to accomplishment and peace went unnoticed. One Winter Story traces Sarah’s faith and determination to their roots in a beautiful montage of film,voice, memory and emotion. The surfing footage is an awesome sight but the fine, intensely immediate rendering of Sarah’s experience is this unforgettable films real reward.
