ABOUT BREATH
Simon Baker brings to life Tim Winton’s bestselling novel for his directorial debut with this stunning coming-of-age story set on the wild coast of Western Australia.
Two very different boys on the brink of adolescence bond over their new-found love of surfing. When they meet an enigmatic older surfer and his beautiful but damaged girlfriend, they are taken under his wing and challenged in ways that will set their paths for the rest of their lives.
With spectacular cinematography and powerful performances from Simon Baker (The Mentalist, Devil Wears Prada), Elizabeth Debicki (The Night Manager, The Kettering Incident) and newcomers Samson Coulter and Ben Spence, this is a film made for the big screen and London’s first chance to see it in its full glory.

BREATH premiered in September 2017 to wide acclaim at the prestigious Toronto International Film Festival.
