Documentary from acclaimed filmmaker, Stacy Peralta that details the origins and history of surf culture. There is no way of telling the story of big wave riding without telling the story of surfing itself, a sport that has become one of the world's most potent symbols of youth, adventure and freedom. At the heart of the documentary are the funny, spirited, often poignant and dramatic stories told by past and present surfers. It presents a picture, not only of these extraordinary characters, but also gives an authentic insight into the birth, development and ultimately the global appeal of the romantic, culturally significant surfing lifestyle itself.
