Shot on location over several weeks in California, this film tells a simple, heartfelt story about beginnings. It follows a young boy who receives his first surfboard and, driven purely by love for the ocean, walks mile after mile to catch his very first wave.

Filmed with the support of professional surfer Yadin Nicol and his son King Nicol, the story unfolds naturally, blending real moments with a gentle narrative arc rooted in curiosity, determination, and joy. The camera stays close, observing rather than directing, allowing the child’s perspective and sense of wonder to lead the film.

Bathed in California sunshine, the piece captures more than surfing — it captures the feeling of falling in love with something for the first time. A quiet celebration of family, mentorship, and the pull of the sea, the film is an intimate portrait of passion in its purest form, told with warmth, patience, and authenticity.
