Out Of Place is the inspiring film that explores the underground surfing community of Cleveland, Ohio dating back to the early 1960's. In the film, Vince Labbe and his close friends endure harsh weather and dangerous conditions amidst a city recovering from a legacy of lost industry, lost jobs, and a river polluted enough to catch on fire, to surf the elusive waves of Lake Erie. Out of Place is a surfing documentary directed by Scott Ditzenberger and Darrin McDonald that follows the lives of several surfers. While Lake Erie does not offer the quality of waves they would prefer, business commitments, family, and friends keep them from moving. As the best waves occur in the winter, the surfers often experience freezing conditions including during a snowbound Great Lakes Eastern Surfing Association competition featured in the film. Out of Place opened at the New York Surf Film Festival in September 2009 where it won the Viewers Choice Award for Best Feature!
