Drift
Inspired by true events, "Drift" is a story set on Australia's spectacular and rugged coastline in the early 1970s. It begins in a remote coastal town with the two Kelly brothers, who spend their youth searching for the perfect wave. Out of necessity, the family launch a backyard surf business; rethinking board design, crafting homemade wetsuits and selling their new surf gear out of their van. Battling killer waves, small-town conservatism and hard-core criminals, the brothers persevere, daring to dream of a world where they can surf to live and live to surf. A story of passion and corruption, deadly addictions and fractured relationships.
