Followed by a live discussion with Kiana Weltzien, director, producer and subject of WOMEN & THE WIND

Three women ignite flames of curiosity and adventure by deepening our understanding of the synergy between nature and humanity through a voyage following plastic across the North Atlantic on Mara Noka, a 50-year-old wooden catamaran.

Kiana Weltzien is the producer, co-director, and one of the three protagonists of Women & the Wind. She is also the founder and president of the Women & the Wind Foundation, a nonprofit created to support women-led, environmentally-focused adventure projects — with a focus on first-time and high-risk journeys. Kiana is the captain of Mara Noka, a 1971 wooden Wharram catamaran that she has sailed across the Atlantic four times. Her first ocean crossing in 2019 left a lasting impact: witnessing firsthand the scale of plastic pollution at sea sparked the desire to tell a story that could reconnect people to nature. Women & the Wind emerged from that urgency, led by the shared commitment of a small, all-women crew determined to make a film that can provoke change and highlight how far belief and collaboration can take you when the wind is right.
