"Breath "is a story of risk, of learning one's limits by
challenging death. On the wild, lonely coast of Western Australia,
two thrill-seeking teenage boys fall under the spell of a veteran
big-wave surfer named Sando. Their mentor urges them into a
regiment of danger and challenge, and the boys test themselves and
each other on storm swells and over shark-haunted reefs. The boys
give no thought to what they could lose, or to the demons that
drive their mentor on into ever-greater danger. Venturing beyond
all caution--in sports, relationships, and sex--each character
approaches a point from which none of them will return
undamaged.
