Synopsis: As China trains its first generation of Olympic surfers, two promising young athletes - Alex and Lolo - navigate adolescence, freedom, and their love of the sport.Lolo, a young woman, decides against a university education and an office job in favor of a surfing life. Alex, the best surfer in China, recognizes that his future lies outside of the national team structure and pushes against the team’s collective goal of the Olympics.
Everyone remembers breaking away at some point in their lives - maybe as a teenager or maybe later. Those choices are filled with risk and doubt, especially when parents and coaches might have other ideas about what constitutes success. The path can seem harder yet impossible not to take.
