BLACKWATER: The Story of a Place Called Teahupo'o

2005 · 100 min

The wave is undoubtedly one of surfing's most challenging and awe-inspiring waves. As Chris Malloy comments, "that wave has changed surfing forever." The movie features fantastic surfing and commentary from a who's who of surfing, people such as Vetea David, Manoa Drollet, Shane Dorian, Kelly Slater, Tom Carroll, Mark Occhilupo, Bruce and Andy Irons, Layne Beachley, and the Hobgood brothers, to name a few. For the first time, you can see and hear it all - the myths, the facts, the history, the stories, the consequences, and most of all, the unforgettable waves. "Blackwater" contains loads of never-before-seen footage from over 25 of the world's best cameramen, exclusive interviews with over 50 great surfers, and just one big star - a surf location that's nothing short of unbelievable.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

BLACKWATER: The Story of a Place Called Teahupo'o is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A 2005 film from an era before CGI overload, with real performances that still hit hard. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
