"Becoming Westerly" reveals the story behind the transformation of surfing champion Peter Drouyn into Westerly Windina.
Drouyn was a champion surfer with a touch of genius who forever changed the face of surfing by introducing the concept of the man-on-man competition format.
Known for his aggressive yet elegant style on the wave, Drouyn was also a lawyer, heartthrob actor, and showman extraordinaire, famous for his eccentric behavior and ambitious ideas.
For nearly a decade now, Peter Drouyn has been living as a woman, Westerly Windina.
The surfing community is at once awestruck, skeptical, and supportive.
A portrait of two extraordinary people in one and a very personal account of the courage and self-belief it has taken for Peter to become Westerly.
