Just went to see this film in Manly while on touring Australia and strongly recommend for you to have a look at it if you get the chance.
All shot on 16 mm film. Had a chance to meet with Stephen & Tatiana as well and they turned out to be some really nice people.
On Thursday Dec 1 it will screen at Chauvel Cinema in Paddington, so if you missed the sold out show in Sydney tonight, make it over there. You will find more details and screening of the film at www.elmarmialma.com
The beast that was sleeping did wake up and come to life in a way that saw surfing change yet again.
During the Billabong Pro 2011 in Tahiti we saw some of the biggest, meanest and scariest waves ridden in competitive surfing.
ASL (Australias Surfing Life) along with Billabong are now releasing a 144 page hardbound book from this epic contest, without advertising (sweet!!!).
Even though the design/layout seem a little “unclean” in my eyes, it will definitely be a great buy for the $25 it’ll cost.
You can pre order the book now.
I’ve been following this project for the last year and been looking forward seeing the film for as long.
It has been up at a few different locations and festivals for a few months now, but the official release is still not anounced.
Can’t wait.
