Don't Be Prey  Australia / 2026 / 93 mins

After a highly public corporate collapse shatters his identity, Australian entrepreneur Mark Sowerby commits to completing the Oceans Seven, seven of the world’s most punishing open-water channel crossings. No wetsuit. No cage. Only freezing water, violent currents, and the constant risk of becoming prey. Filmed across five continents over a relentless decade, DON’T BE PREY follows Mark as he pushes his body to its physical limits. Beneath the extreme endurance lies a deeper reckoning. As the ocean tests his discipline and resolve, Mark must confront his need for control and the psychological cost of his past. What begins as an act of defiance gradually becomes a journey toward surrender, resilience, and hard-won self-acceptance.
