This clip is a trailer for ‘Connected by Sea’ - a self-funded film by Jemma Pigott of Baby Pig Productions about the bond between Sydney’s Freshwater beach and Hawaii’s Waikiki.
Forged in 1915 when legendary Hawaiian Duke Kahanamoku demonstrated surfing at Freshwater; formalised in 2011 with a Goodwill Beach City Agreement and celebrated in 2015.
The full documentary tells a pan-Pacific story of communities united by their love for Duke. It is a tale of two lands, one sea, and one man’s legacy. The film also touches on Duke's connections to Olympian and WW1 Digger Cecil Healy and aquatic trailblazer Isabel Letham.
During production, Jemma was the first successful applicant of the National Film and Sound Archive’s Take Three initiative for emerging Australian filmmakers. This gave her access to three minutes of rare archival footage, including images of Freshwater from the 1910s, when the beach’s namesake fresh-water stream still flowed into the sea.
The film premiered at Duke’s Ocean Fest in 2015, an annual festival in Waikiki celebrating Duke’s birth.
