Film: In God's Hands

We have spent the last two classes watching the film, "In God's Hands." Essentially, this is a surfing film, but it delves into the life of the surfers and the motivation behind their drive toward being the best in their chosen sport and taking extreme risks each and every day. The focus of this film is on looking into the internal conflict of one of the older surfers. Students were asked to discuss in writing the internal conflict of the character of Mickey. We will have a small class discussion about the film next day and students should proceed with the questions that were to be answered.
