Finding the Line
Congratulations to Old Girls Anna Segal (’04 & Nil Magnun Nisi Bonum recipient) and Natalie Segal (’06) on their movie Finding the Line A Quest to Define and Understand Fear which will make its Australian premier at the Astor Theatre on 29 May.
The movie, produced by the two sisters, is about fear and understanding the balance between risk, reason and reward.
Synopsis:
Finding the Line is a film about fear, it’s paralysing grip on humans and how it affects our decision-making.
Olympian and X Games Slopestyle champion Anna Segal and her Freeride World Tour, big mountain skiing sister, Nat Segal, use their skiing to understand fear and how it manifests in the two siblings’ lives.
Throughout their careers as professional skiers, Anna and Nat have both constantly been challenged by fear. Yet, despite being brought up under the same roof, they have learned to deal with it in almost contrasting ways, neither leading them to the success they dreamed of.
A heartfelt journey on the knife’s edge of big mountains throughout Canada and France push them to their physical and emotional limits. The extreme skiing mecca of Alaska pushes them beyond.
The Australian sisters soon realise that the most important lessons lie within each other’s approach. Equipped with greater insight, they negotiate the fine balance between staying in their comfort zone and taking too much risk, learning that sometimes to move forward, you need to understand what is holding you back.
