WINNER · BEST FILM · BYRON BAY FILM FESTIVAL

The lives of two strangers are changed forever when they cross paths on the surfing adventure of a lifetime, discovering love, downshifting and four charismatic Chilean horses.

Ecologist Matty Hannon heads out on an incredible solo adventure, from the top of Alaska to the tip of Patagonia. But the joy of travel lies in twists and turns of the journey – not the final destination. Riding south, Matty joins paths with permaculture farmer Heather, meeting Zapatista rebels, Amazonian shamans and Mapuche leaders whose salient words crack the adventurers’ cultural veneer.

Shot over 16 years, The Road to Patagonia is a stunning, intimate, and unflinching series of love letters between people and the planet.
