BEHIND THE SUN || Short Film

In 2017 3x World champ Mick Fanning took the year away from full time competition to explore the world and experience new places. 

Matt Kleiner was lucky enough to join him on a trip the the Arctic Circle to direct an episode of Red Bull's "Chasing the Shot" where he surfed through the night under the Northern Lights. 

Although the days were extremely cold and short with only a few hours of light, they managed to find great waves and stood in awe of the scenic beauty in every direction. 

This is Matt Kleiner directors cut from that trip and features some of his favorite daytime moments while focusing on the scenic side of their trip. 

Special thanks to Red Bull for making it happen.
