50TH ANNIVERSARY
4K RESTORATION
Arguably the world’s most iconic surf film, Albert Falzon’s Morning of the Earth influenced a generation of surfers around the world, and an entire genre of surf filmmakers that followed. Meticulously remastered from 16mm rolls to stunning 4K big screen glory, SWIFF celebrates the 50th anniversary of a crucial piece of Australian cinema identity, ready to rip it up, live and loud.
With its hypnotic soundtrack and featuring some of surfing’s all-time greats tearing up breaks down the NSW and South Queensland coastline – Terry Fitzgerald, Baddy Treloar, Gerry Lopez, Nat Young, and Michael Peterson - Falzon’s cinematic monument to soul-surfing includes a pilgrimage to Indonesia’s Uluwatu with Rusty Miller and Steve Cooney, searching for perfect waves across their endless summer.
“We didn’t have a plan, so we’d drive out to whatever headland we were at and pull up, make a fire, camp out, smoke a chillum, and wake up in the morning to go surfing.” – Albert Falzon
