Surf’s up at The Pearl |

As an epic winter seems never-ending, North
Idaho residents may find their thoughts turning
to sunshine, sand, and sea. Look no further …
The Pearl Theater has just the thing this
Saturday at 7 p.m.!
"View From a Blue Moon," written and directed by
surfing legend John John Florence and Blake Kuny,
explores the closest we can come to the ocean
without buying a plane ticket.
It may be a little early for a few of us to don
that bikini, but everyone could use a little
taste of summer, especially with surfing images
shot entirely in stunning 4k film (and often
from helicopters). For a mere $5 ticket, The
Pearl, 7160 Ash Street, Bonners Ferry, invites
the audience to sit back and relax as they
experience the waves with one of surfing’s
biggest stars.
"View From a Blue Moon" follows the native
Hawaiian with his closest friends from the North
Shore of Oahu to their favorite surfing
destinations around the globe.
Florence continues to seal his legacy as one of
the most gifted surfers ever by redefining what
is possible in the ocean. From the dreamy blue
perfection of the South Pacific to the uncharted
waters of Africa, Florence rides waves of
emotion as he takes on the world’s best waves.
Rather than relaxation, the movie may (at times)
keep us on the edge of our seats, but what fun
to go along for the ride!
“Weather schmeather,” said one prospective
audience member, “I’m wearing sunblock, shorts,
and shades. Let the sunshine in!”
The Pearl Café opens at 6:30 p.m. and will have
traditional movie fare like popcorn, boxed candy
and hotdogs, along with a few healthier options
and Nora’s decadent desserts.
“We don’t want to become a movie house, but it’s
time to break up the winter blues,” said Pearl
Board of Directors President Rhea Verbanic.
The Pearl Theater is a non-profit organization,
dedicated to fostering the performing arts
throughout Boundary County. For more information
