Documentary Showcase Casts Off on Epic Journey with Losing Sight of Shore

LOS ANGELES - April 14, 2023 - PRLog -- Scientology Network's DOCUMENTARY SHOWCASE, the weekly series providing a platform for Independent filmmakers to air films on important social, cultural and environmental issues, presents the award-winning documentary Losing Sight of Shore on April 14, 2023.

DOCUMENTARY SHOWCASE airs Fridays at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Scientology Network.

Losing Sight of Shore documents the incredible journey of four women who set out to accomplish what has never been done before—crossing the Pacific Ocean in an ocean rowboat by themselves. Ultimately, their epic journey stands as a powerful testament to the human spirit.

Directed by Sarah Moshman, the feature-length documentary follows a team of four women as they attempt a once-in-a-lifetime feat—spending more than nine months at sea, rowing a small vessel 8,000 miles from America to Australia. The challenges they must overcome include harrowing and violent sea swells, seasickness, blistering equatorial temperatures, boredom and not least of all, mental anguish. The story is ultimately more than a chronicle of a record-setting feat, but the affirmation of the power of perseverance, friendship and courage to overcome the impossible.

Losing Sight of Shore was an Official Selection at the Newport Beach and Bentonville Film Festivals and the winner of Best of the Fest at the Adventure Travel Film Festival.
