W.H.Y. is a short movie featuring the Dutch wavesailing lady Amanda Beenen. In 2004 horse riding was her favourite thing, but back then a traumatic accident changed everything and her life turned in a totally different direction. Windsurfing came into her life.
Watch a beautiful movie by Manuel Grafenauer and if you want to find out more about Amanda, read our actual interview with her, who has the attention span of a roasted peanut. That’s what she said …
W.H.Y. featuring Amanda Beenen

I truly enjoy direction of photography and editing. Wave ride is really nice and the root message to this short movie is really interesting
Thanks and bravo!
Where is it?
Hi Alexis, thanks – good to hear you like it. All the windsurf action was filmed in Capetown/SA. Spot were Sunset Beach, Bigbay and Melkbos. Thanks you again.
first 10 I’ve given for a movie! This is awesome. What a great and amazing life story. Amanda get’s it: when life serves you lemons; you make lemonade. When life hits you in the head, you punch it in the mouth. You come out stronger, better, deeper, more beautiful. Otherwise it’s been all for naught. I so like the title: why? Often we don’t know, maybe we don’t need to know; as long as we improve personally.
Oh and WTF guys; she F-ing rips, HARD!!!!!!
10 from me miss Beenen! nice wave-rides and top editing by the boyfriend!:)
