Bay Area Premiere

It’s been scientifically proven that the sea positively affects us when we are in or near it. It’s a reset button, of sorts. In a country known for its passionate surfers, the town of Cabo Blanco showcases the struggles and successes of surfers and fishermen, each vying for what the ocean has to offer. In the end, they realize that collaboration can have a more positive outcome than contentious competition.
