Mel Bampton Presents...How Human

How To Sit In Being Enough with Johnny Abegg

Lissie Jane Episode 56

This is a story about that inner turmoil that plagues so many of us. It’s the sinister chisel of self-doubt that both breaks us down but also propels us, it’s the quest of answers in a life that comes with no guidebook, the hurts that can swallow us whole or see us striving to do our best. 
 
This is the story of Johnny Abegg, a once-aspiring pro-surfer, turned independent filmmaker, metamorphosised into the Founder of Surfers For Climate. He is a quiet and powerful changemaker, who recently released his most personal and introspective film - Fragments of a Half Life.

This is the tale of a beautiful legend, who’s turned his internal musings into visuals that help us all find our way. A beacon of manhood at a time when manhood is plagued with uncertainty and false prophets.

Come on a journey through the waves of Tasmania, into the surfing World Qualifying Series and an unexpected pivot, that's become a mechanism for understanding life.
