HEART OF THE SEA wins Craigen Weston Bowen Award

The Women in Adventure Sports Film Festival awarded Heart of the Sea the Craigen Weston Bowen Award.

The award is given to the film that most personifies the essence of a strong woman. Rell Sunn, the Queen of Makaha certainly fits that description. We are so honored.
Thanks to the team at CMPZ productions for putting up a great festival...and for the award.

After spending two months in an AIDS-related coma, no one knew if jazz great Fred Hersch would ever eat or walk again—let alone play the piano. But when he gained consciousness, he was determined to survive. Capturing the making of his "My Coma Dreams," a theatrical, musical and visual odyssey into the vivid dreams and nightmares he experienced during his coma, award-winning filmmakers Carrie Lozano and Charlotte Lagarde delve into the life and work of this educator, AIDS activist and one of the foremost jazz musicians of our time. Tonight, the filmmakers will discuss and show clips from their work-in-progress documentary
