The story

Writer/surfer Sam George and professional surfers Holly Beck and Joe Curren travel to the remote island of São Tomé off the coast of West Africa, part of São Tomé and Príncipe. They document the indigenous surfing culture. Known as "corre-barra", it is an indelible part of the island's heritage with a long and uncertain history.
