Surf Nation

In Hainan, China’s southernmost province, hundreds of athletes as young as 9 years old train as part of the Chinese National Surf team. The young recruits, who have left their families, feel the pressure of failure.

Over the course of two years, the film follows two of the country's top surfers, Alex, 17, and Lolo, 22, as they train, compete and discover what they want their lives to be.
