Linda P Really engaging documentary about a girl who survives Cystic Fybrosis and also tackles the sport of tandem surfing with talent and grace. I love survival stories and this one was definitely worth the watch. Uplifting and triumphant! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/06/20 Full Review Audience Member Breathe Breana is a lovely mix between a story of an inspiring young woman living with Cystic Fibrosis and a beautiful tone poem. With much footage from Breana's life starting at birth we see a young woman simultaneously living her best life while fighting a chronic disease. A worthwhile, uplifting film that doesn't shy away from the realities of life. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review william w Great documentary that follows the life of a young girl who overcomes the odds not only of Cystic Fibrosis but of a sport that is challenging even for the most able bodied among us. It's compelling and well shot. At times tough but her accomplishments in the area of tandem surfing are well worth the watch. Uplifting, motivating and humbling. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member What a beautiful film. It's hard to find a documentary that's at once inspiring and lyrical, but Breathe Breana achieves both. Breana is such an inspiration- she's unstoppable, and reminds us to go beyond our reasons for not following our dreams. It's so uplifting when filmmakers choose to focus their artistry on stories that can lift their audience, and this is as about as fine an example of that kind of craft that can be found. Hats off to the creators, and hats off to Breana. Thanks for sharing her story! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 01/25/23 Full Review Audience Member A lyrical poem or cinematic music video about a young beautiful woman & the ocean. This is an unapologetic lyrical doc about a young woman and her passion for sports and the ocean with a challenge that most don't have. That challenge is carried with a grace that is humbling. I do not mean to over indulge pity as often is done by the naive that forget we all will check out of this human form all too soon. But some stories of how the delicate balance of life is carried are moving because it seems to demand different things that most of us do not know. It is a slow piece that will not rush because you may be in a hurry. It reveals through a narration, a type of bond and love between subject and creator that you may or may not appreciate. But without a doubt, and beyond any question...you will enjoy the spirit of the young surf angel subject of this project. I wish her all of the oceans and adventures and surfings she can ever desire. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member What an incredible story of sheer determination and an ongoing battle against a terrible illness. This film explores cystic fibrosis and an astonishing woman struggling with the disease whilst doing what she loves, surfing. Brilliant! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Read all reviews
