32 Miles wins documentary award
The newest documentary, “32 Miles” from Black Line in partnership with South Bay Boardriders Club won Best Television Documentary at the Silicon Beach Film Festival earlier this month.

Whether battling the unforgiving waters or bureaucratic red tape, the protagonists of this documentary demonstrate the power of passion, teamwork, and sheer determination to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges,” the film’s description states. The film will have additional screenings at the upcoming Catalina Film Festival on September 28, and Dana Point Film Festival TBD October 9-12. The documentary is available to view on Black Line Logo’s YouTube channel.
