Beyond the Waves

After losing his leg in a life changing accident as a teenager, digger operator Llywelyn Williams found solace in the ocean. Surfing played a pivotal role in his recovery, helping him rebuild his life from the ground up and propelling him to the pinnacle of his sport, four consecutive para surfing world championships. Now sitting on top of the adaptive surfing world, Llywelyn faces the ultimate test: staying there.

This documentary follows the Welshman from Abersoch as he launches his 2026 season in Australia, the place he travelled to after his accident, rediscovered himself and found a new direction through surfing. But securing a winning start down under won’t be plain sailing. To defend his Australian pro title, Llywelyn must defeat his main rival, a former world champion who has the advantage of competing on his own local beach.

Can Llywelyn defy the odds once again, or will the local favourite come out on top?
