The Surfer - Lorcan Finnegan [DVD]

In Lorcan Finnegan's surreal psychological thriller, a man (Nicolas Cage) returns to the idyllic beach of his childhood to surf with his son - only to be thwarted by the locals' hardcore "don't live here, don't surf here" rule. Bitter but determined to surf his beach - and buy the house nearby, where he grew up - the man suffers tribulations of body and soul that push him to his limits. A meditation on punishment, temptation, and salvation, The Surfer burns deep.
