All Points South... 2.15 - 2.30pm

A film about the coastal waters and pollution...

Winner of Best Short Film at the 2009 New York Surf Film Festival. Director: Sachi Cunningham, Running time: 10 mins. A Save Our Waves film Featuring: Ramon Navarro, Keith Malloy, Timmy Turner, Joao de Macedo, Leon Vicuna, Nano Zegers, James Pribram, Edgar Nozes, Brett Schwartz

Surfers are a litmus test of the health of our oceans. Save The Waves Coalition's new film, All Points South, relates how surfers and fishermen in Chile are joining together to fight against rampant pollution from the pulp industry, and how consumers can help by making better choices when buying paper. From California to the long left points of Southern Chile, surfers increasingly find themselves in the line of fire between coastal waters and industrial pollution. In All Points South the journey takes us to Southern Chile, where pulp mill pollution threatens entire ecosystems, an ancient way of life, and threatens to tear apart a tight-knit fishing community. With world-class surfing at some of the planet's best point breaks, this is the story and journey of a group of surfers and their effort to expose the injustice being done by a powerful, worldwide industry.

In the summer of 2008, iconic surfer and former Pipe Master Rob Machado flew to Indonesia to experience a different kind of surf trip.

“The Women and the Waves” is a documentary surf film that explores the lives of female surfers who, through the decades, have chosen to paddle head first into the male dominated sport of surfing and found a place of their own. Surfer girls, women who surf, women who don’t, female athletes, and the men who love them gain insight into what it’s like to “Surf like a Girl!” This inspiring film, featuring generations of women surfers, reveals what has transcended surfing’s status as a sport to become a passion so strong, it is the dominant force in their lives.
