Tres Leches - 3 Tasty Surf Films South of the Border
The Tres Leches film tour features two surf documentaries and one surf film, all which take place south of the border in Mexico and Central America. A Q&A with the filmmakers will take place after the screening. A portion of the ticket sales will benefit the San Luis Obispo Chapter of the Surfrider Foundation. Thanks in advance for joining us for this very special event. See you at the movies!
LA MAESTRA (THE TEACHER)
PRODUCED AND DIRECTED BY PAUL FERRARIS & ELIZABETH PEPIN SILVA
La Maestra profiles Mayra Agulair, a teacher in a tiny fishing village in Baja, Mexico, who decides to follow her own path by becoming the first Mexican woman in her area to surf, and in doing so, changes her community's expectations of what's appropriate for women. Told in Spanish using mainly Mayra's voice, the film shows how she inspires others to take up the sport and follow their dreams. Mayra also talks about the gift of nature that has drawn thousands of tourists over the years, forever changing her hometown. In this regard, the film is also a subtle commentary on the impact outsiders have on small communities and the need for all of us to be more mindful visitors.
GONE: A SURF JOURNEY THROUGH MEXICO
PRODUCED AND DIRECTED BY MARK KRONEMEYER
The crew that brought you 2010's surf journey "Rumors" is back. Where have they been? They were GONE. With 5,800 miles of coastline, Mexico offers more opportunities for undiscovered surf than all but a few countries. Perfect points, heavy beach breaks and rifling reefs are the rewards for surfers willing to search. Many of the treasures remain buried. Undaunted, we set out to dig them up.
THANK YOU SURF AGAIN
PRODUCED BY BILL STEFANACCI, DIRECTED BY FRANK SUN
'Thank You, Surf Again' chronicles the activities of non-profit 'Surf For Life', a voluntourism organization that takes teams of volunteers to impoverished coastal communities. The film documents the building and completion of a high school in Nicaragua and relief efforts in the wake of Typhoon Haiyan in the Philippines.
Challenging the stereotypes of surfers as self serving thrill seekers, 'Thank You, Surf Again' profiles several surfers who dedicate themselves to community development in the areas that they visit. Professional surfers Chadd Konig and Holly Beck are joined by the core Surf For Life team and other surf-centric organizations to launch education, clean water and relief programs throughout the developing world. Shot with RED cameras, the production involves the expertise of many veterans in both the non-profit and media production worlds.
