Soul Surfer: Synopsis

Bethany Hamilton (AnnaSophia Robb) was born to surf. A natural talent who took to the waves at a young age, she was leading an idyllic, sun-drenched, surfer girl's life on the Kauai Coast, competing in national competitions with her best friend Alana (Lorraine Nicholson), when everything changed in a heartbeat. On Halloween morning, Bethany was on a typical ocean outing when a 14-foot tiger shark came out of nowhere and seemed to shatter all her dreams.

Soul Surfer reveals the moving aftermath of this headline-making story, as Bethany fights to recover and grapples with the future. Strengthened by the love of her parents, Tom (Dennis Quaid) and Cheri (Helen Hunt), she refuses to give in or give up, and begins a bold return to the water. Still, the questions keep hammering her: Why did this happen? Why did she have to lose everything? Will she ever feel the joy and power of riding the waves again? And if she can't be a surfer, then who is she?

    This movie was overall fantastic! Bethany Hamilton is my idol. She just always keeps her head high and knows that God will always stand by her side and will be there for her through it all. She has a good heart , I'll say she is very blessed!

    Bethany is a wonderful example to my children, not only with her perseverance in a mountain-size trial, but also her Christian walk. I am so glad to have a great role model for them!
    My kids NEED this book!

    I'm interested in Bethany Hamilton's story. I think it will be a nice, inspirational film. Plus, AnnaSophia Robb is going to be playing her, she is one of my top young actresses in Hollywood. I think she has a promising career.
