Man in the Wave is an intimate portrait of a New England engineer who finds purpose, connection, and healing through surf photography— after a life-altering diagnosis of multiple sclerosis. As he wades into the ocean with his camera, he captures the quiet rituals of a tight-knit surf community while navigating the slow progression of his illness. Told through stunning imagery and deeply personal interviews, the film explores resilience, identity, and the quiet power of showing up.
