Documentary by Matty Hannon If this profound little film has taught me anything, it’s that the best kinds of stories happen on the road, often unintentionally. They’re out there, you just need to go find them. Made by an Aussie who set out to surf the west coast of the Americas, The Road to Patagonia features awe-inspiring shots of beaches in the middle of nowhere, campfires on snow-capped mountains, starry skies in the desert, and surfboards strapped to four charismatic horses. And while this incredible footage spanning over an entire 16 years is deserving of a watch all on its own, the doco really is a lot more than that. Hence the contemplative, heavy silence that fell over our team when the screen went black. Some of us sobbed more than others… but don’t get me wrong, this isn’t a sad or emotionally exhausting film at all. Actually, it’s rare to feel so inspired after sitting in front of a screen for so long. We all took our own things from it. But for me, it made me think about being too nervous to get out there in the surf – to be amongst the incredible stories and people that I am lucky enough to experience through this magazine. It’s easy to see why each of us latched onto the story of Matty Hannon – an ecologist from the north coast of New South Wales who is left feeling overwhelmed, uninspired, and diagnosed with clinical depression after a tedious life in the city. Everyone has their own ways of dealing with monotony, but his solution was to spend a few years travelling the coast that stretches from the top of Alaska all the way down to the tip of Patagonia – which is as admirable as it is absolutely insane. #59 // smorgasboarder // 39
