"Not only set the high standards for surfing documentaries but brought the sport much greater respect and interest from around the globe." Barry Garron, The Hollywood Reporter
"Insanely gorgeous in gradations of aquamarine...will send you into a dream state." Elvis Mitchell, The New York Times
"Absolutely unlike any documentary you've ever seen, Step Into Liquid nearly qualifies as a religious experience." Marc Savlov, Austin Chronicle
"A rapturous celebration of freedom and courage." Megan Lehmann, New York Post
"A classic surfing film." Michael Agger, The New Yorker
"The best surfing documentary ever made. And that includes 1966's "The Endless Summer" and its terrific 1994 sequel..." Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

Editor's Note
With STEP INTO LIQUID, Dana Brown emerges from his legendary father's shadow and adds another classic film to the surf documentary canon. Son of hugely influential filmmaker Bruce Brown (THE ENDLESS SUMMER, ON ANY SUNDAY), Dana's debut as a writer/director is a gorgeously photographed tribute to surfing and the individuals who love it. Journeying all across to the world to show just how universally praised a sport--and lifestyle--surfing is, Brown uses his natural enthusiasm and humor to great effect, narrating the film with an infectious, breezy optimism. He presents a wide range of surfers, from superstars (Kelly Slater, Laird Hamilton, Keala Kennelly) to amateurs, including an old man who hasn't missed a day of surfing in over 25 years.The locations include such unknown surf spots as Wisconsin, Texas, and even Ireland, to the more widely regarded waters of Hawaii, California, and Australia. Brown wisely saves the best for last, as a group of incredibly bold surfers journey out to sea to test out their skills on 60-foot-plus waves. But what makes STEP INTO LIQUID such a vital experience is its overall positive energy. This is a film that doesn't just celebrate surfing; it celebrates life.
