My good friend Basti Funk is also an enthusiastic surfer and we spent a week of soul tripping around northern Spain last year together. He introduced me one of the most intriguing projects, “The Old, the Young and the Sea” by the Nomad Earth production.
It is about “the people who inhabit, visit, surf and protect” the coasts from France to Portugal, known as “European surf highway”, which is what most of us do in the summer. I had gathered loads of footy in the past four years from all this places, so he invited me to help them out with my archive. I also offered to help him film while we were on the road, why I really enjoy working with him and always learn a lot on the way. We had super good times, surfed breaks I have never been to and saw a great part of Spain, so I enjoyed every bit of it.
Here is the first teaser for the project and make sure to check out all about it on the website…
