In the 1980s, a bunch of surfer friends from Biarritz’ Grande Plage win all the titles just as they live on their own terms. The film is about a crucial period for surf that went from a counterculture phenomenon to a high-performance sport. A quest of the absolute and pure sensations that could take you to breaking competition records or directly to jail. This is the unknown story of the six best European surfers. This is the story of their rise and fall.
