  Inside ‘Don’t Be Prey’: Filmmaker Mark Sowerby’s Extreme Ocean Journey

  Sep 28, 202636 min

  Filmmaker Mark Sowerby embarks on a journey across five continents and seven oceans in a desperate bid to overcome fear and trauma and reclaim his life. As a result of this journey, Mark documents his remarkable journey in the new documentary DON'T BE PREY. He competes as an open swimmer and takes on Oceans Seven , which is one of the most extreme forms of open‑water swimming events in the world. It involves long‑distance channel crossings in unpredictable, often dangerous natural environments — oceans, straits, and open channels — with no wetsuit, no flotation, and no protection from currents, wildlife, or weather. The film is currently a big hit on the film festival circuit.
