Encircle Films presents "The Cigarette Surfboard" on March 19th, a documentary using "ciggy" butts and surfing to build ocean mindfulness and stewardship! See how two Santa Cruz surfers started a movement to get rid of cigarette filters that litter our beaches!
Also joining us will be surfer Eric Sharman and Eugene filmmaker Patrick Chapman with their short film “14,000 Miles to Chile”. The film documents Eric’s plan to ride a motorcycle from Coos Bay to Tierra del Fuego, cleaning up the beaches along the way and inspiring others to do the same.
Fun, uplifting, and great films about environmental issues with awesome surfing clips. Catch a wave and come join us!
More information is below and on our website, along with links to the film trailer and ticketing.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
After a young designer realizes that a surfboard – which he crafted from thousands of littered cigarette butts picked up off California beaches – could captivate the eyes of millions across the globe, he decides to use it as the impetus to do something more.
The Cigarette Surfboards become a platform to spark ocean stewardship and the symbol of a campaign to hold Big Tobacco accountable for their toxic, plastic waste.
Surfing is the medium, but the message is universal.
