Wind
The only thing better than winning the America's Cup is losing it... and winning it back.
Directed by Carroll Ballard
Produced by American Zoetrope, Filmlink International
A spirited sports drama about redemption and competitive drive, centered on an American yacht crew's quest to reclaim the America's Cup with personal stakes woven through the racing narrative.
In 1983, yacht sailor Will Parker leads an American crew financed by millionaire Morgan Weld to defeat during the America's Cup race against an Australian crew. Determined to get the prize back, Will convinces Morgan to finance an experimental boat designed by his ex-girlfriend Kate's new beau, Joe Heisler. When the boat is completed, the Americans head to Australia to reclaim the cup.
