A troubled teenager from a crime-ridden barrio of Lima, Peru, struggles against the odds to realise his dream of becoming a professional surfer and lift his family out of poverty. Taken under the wing of a former world champion, he flourishes. But barrio life proves hard to escape and he is caught up in a drive-by shooting. His surfing suffers until his father is released from prison.
It’s a story of hope and personal struggle against seemingly impossible odds.
Ultimately it’s the emotional and uplifting triumph of a young man who refuses to be defined by the circumstances of his birth.
