Zen and Zero (2006)

Genre : Action, Documentary

Runtime : 1H 1M

Director : Michael Ginthoer

Synopsis

A surf trip from L.A. to Costa Rica is a classic free ride, executed by generations of surfers since the 1960's. When five landlocked Austrians get on that very road, it becomes a different thing: a comedy, a philosophical diversion, an investigation of the myth of the surfer dude itself.
