2013 Feature Line Up Announced

LSFF-2013_Page_1The London Surf / Film Festival, Presented by Reef, is stoked to announce the official selection of International features for  2013. Hosted 31st October – 3rd November, at the iconic Riverside Studios, The London Surf / Film Festival is the UK’s largest celebration of contemporary surf culture showcasing work from waveriding’s most exciting creative’s, bringing to the capital four nights of international surfing’s hottest releases, independent films and award-winning features.

“The feature programme showcases the very pinnacle of surf filmmaking on a global scale. It delivers a full range of perspectives on waveriding from cutting edge performances in films like Innersection Black and Almost Cut My Hair to thought provoking documentaries like Learning To Breathe which explores the darker side of our subculture and highly anticipated features like Bella Vita that celebrate the broad nature of surfing,” says London Surf / Film Festival founder Chris Nelson. “I’m hugely excited about the line up which includes 1 massive World Premiere, 3 huge European Premieres and 12 UK Premieres. We’ve curated a diverse and exciting programme of award winning films and underground hits from across the globe but one constant is the quality – the cinematography is stunning, the sound tracks are epic while the surfing pushes things to a whole new level – I can’t wait to see the films played out on the big screen in this cultural capital to an amped and knowledgeable UK audience.’
