Sinopsis(1)
Two friends discover the perfect beach at a remote Norwegian shore just above the Arctic Circle and decide to spend the winter here – surfing. Building a hut from driftwood and living on expired food only, the young men turn sustainable living into their own Robinson-adventure, keeping their calm even in the face of personal danger. The seemingly harsh environment rewards them with powerful, green waves frothed white, flanked by snow-covered cliffs. And we see the surfers – covered in neoprene suits – waving happily to the camera sitting on their boards or effortlessly riding a wave's crest. Shot both on ground level and down from an air-glider, this film equally reflects the solemn beauty and the exciting ferocity of possibly the most beautiful surfing spot outside of Hawai'i.

Básicamente, solo es un video entusiasta casero al aire libre de dos estudiantes de cine, pero hecho desde el corazón, y discretamente y con buen gusto, inspirando no solo el pensamiento ecológico sino también la acción.

This documentary is a complete balm to the soul. It’s not lengthy, but at the same time, it’s not so short when I realize how many ideas it encompasses, which is a lot considering that these boys had more left to say. In any case, hats off for such a project. There might be about three more tons of premium waste in that bay now, but I can’t rate it any lower than five stars because of the awareness and the desire to make a change. By the way, those shots with the guys surfing in wetsuits were flawless. That’s what I call freedom!
