Acting
The first truly international surf movie in years. Beautifully photographed by surfers in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Hawaii, compares the surfing styles of 50 of the world's top surfers in 90 minutes of pure surfing energy.
In the process of remastering Albert Falzon's 1972 classic film, Morning of the Earth, 90 minutes of never-before-seen 16mm camera original outtakes were unexpectedly unearthed. Because of the wealth of this material, a 38-minute film was produced. Getting back to where it all began, this artistic showcase of the “Lost Reels” paints a more complete picture of the filmmaker's journey, and reveals culturally, environmentally and socially significant details of a forgotten past. The film covers Australia, Bali and Hawaii, and is accompanied by an all original soundtrack.

Experience remote Australia and hidden California, as ridden by Bob McTavish, Ted Spencer, Baddy Treloar, Chris Brock, Gary Keys, Russell Hughes and a brigade of the underground's best. Check out Norther NSW in the golden era of the late 1960s, with empty perfection at Lennox Head.
