UK Surf Cinema is a national touring showcase bringing together surfers, ocean lovers and filmmakers to celebrate story-driven films about wave-riding and the sea. We have 3 films with heart and purpose screening not only for the thrill of watching waves, but for the shared love of the ocean, kinship and culture.
Salt by Alice Ward (12 mins)
A moving short explores the role salt has played throughout filmmaker Alice Ward’s life. From her mother noticing her skin was unusually salty at birth leading to a diagnosis of Cystic Fibrosis to Alice becoming the first woman in Ireland to start shooting in the water to capture surfing from a female perspective.
Finding San Nicolas by Martin Dorey & John Cutts (29 mins)
In 1968, John Cutts and Roger Tout set off on a banana boat with surfboards and six rolls of film. What they found was paradise and adventure. Told with new interviews cut against John’s original Super 8 reels, this is surf history and surf exploration at its most alive.
Riptide by Kristian Kane & Lewis Carter (53 mins)
The story of Welsh surfer Mark “Jock” Jones, whose surf-dominated life is upended by a catastrophic Myeloma blood cancer diagnosis. An inspiring reflection on resilience, wellbeing and the healing pull of surfing and the sea.
Each film will be introduced with a short video message from the filmmakers, and the evening will be hosted in person by the UK Surf Cinema team.
Every film you see is properly licensed, with filmmakers paid fairly for each screening. The tour is also building a fund to support mentoring, networking and new creative projects, ensuring emerging talent has the backing it needs. On top of that, £1 from every ticket goes directly to The Wave Project, whose surf therapy programmes help young people across the UK.

Doors Open: 6:30pm

Whooping and hollering at surfers on screen is actively encouraged and anyone is welcome to attend.
