Here's a trailer for a new surf film which has just won best feature at the New York Surf Film Festival. And here's a bit of blurb, especially interesting for any who know these people and have travelled on the Indies Trader. Who'd have thought?
"Sea of Darkness, by Michael Oblowitz, is A modern day pirate tale concerning the ship The Indies Trader and the men who sailed it …A tale of exploration, adventure, and the discovery of jungle surf spots off the remote Indonesian coastline in the 1970’s…The smuggling missions that funded these journeys of discovery and the terrifying price some of these men paid for their passion…This film charts the story of a dynamic mix of unique and roguish men and their lasting legacy on contemporary culture."
