SURF FILM NACHT: SURF ON, EUROPE!

In the organizer's words:

Additional screening as part of the "Surf Film Night"

Screenings in English/Spanish/French with German subtitles

Torn between the freedom of the waves and social constraints, three surfing enthusiasts wrestle with social and political hurdles in the documentary Surf on, Europe! Majid, a kitesurfing instructor in Tarifa, Spain, longs for his family, who are stuck in Morocco due to visa restrictions. He makes his way through the jungle of bureaucracy to offer them the possibility of a European passport.

In Biarritz, France, Margaux challenges gender stereotypes in the heteronormative surf scene. Fed up with sexist stereotypes, she and her friends organize the first LGBTQ-friendly surf festival in Europe. Growing up during the Northern Ireland conflict, Rosy escaped the riots in Derry by surfing. In the midst of a deeply divided society, the surfboard shaper searches for stability while striking out on his own. "Surf on, Europe!" explores Europe's promise of freedom and the ongoing challenges that threaten it.
