Racing to Zero is a quick-moving, upbeat documentary presenting new solutions to the global problem of waste. By simply substituting the word RESOURCE for the word GARBAGE, a culture can be transformed, and a new wealth of industries can emerge.

Three years ago the mayor of San Francisco pledged to achieve zero waste by 2020. Racing to Zero tracks San Francisco’s waste stream diversion tactics and presents innovative new solutions to waste. This film documents a surprising, engaging and inspiring race to zero.

Nike produced Leave a Message before pulling back from the surfing industry in 2013.  This incredible full-length video showcases some of the world’s most talented women surfers.  Beautiful cinematography and an energetic soundtrack are topped only by the athletes featured.  One of our favorite modern surf films.

Other surf flicks include Moments and The Distant Shores...
