Following the major earthquake that struck Hatay in 2023, Deniz, who came to help, discovered the waves of the Samandağ coast. Inspired by surfing, he envisioned transforming the town and, with the help of a local fisherman, began offering surfing lessons to young people. This is how the surfing adventure of two young men named Akıl and Haydar began, and they quickly achieved national success. Thanks to their success, a surfing center was opened in Hatay. With the power of the waves, they formed a hopeful, united community. “Lifeline” tells the story of how fear of the sea turned into courage and despair turned into hope.
