‘Brilliant Corners Ghana’:
Directed and presented by travel writer, former European longboard champion and Finisterre Ambassador Sam Bleakley, Brilliant Corners is a surf travel series of 52 minute long documentaries (five episodes per series) exploring emerging surf cultures, and capturing the power of surfing for social good. Through interviews, narrative and beautifully filmed surfing sequences in extreme destinations, Sam meets developing surf cultures, explores surfing as dance, and leads an adventure travelogue across a variety of physical environments, learning about the respective landscapes of art and music. Brilliant Corners is a celebration of life, travel and off-the-beaten-track places, demonstrating how surfing can offer detailed understanding of the changing relationship between cultures and coastlines.
