THIS IT MY PICK OF THE FESTIVAL What an incredible film. JUST WATCH IT.Ed Birch Director of Salt-Street productions
A very unique short.Claire Carter Writer, Film Officer for Kendal Mountain Festival, 'Creative Consultant'.
Ice, driftwood, foamy waves and ... skateboards? In this poetic short film, four skaters head north to the cold Norwegian coast, applying their urban skills to a wild canvas of beach flotsam, frozen sand and pastel skies. The result is a beautiful mashup — biting winds and short days, ollies and one ephemeral miniramp.
