The movie explores Pura Vida’s rich and vibrant surf culture, and some of the country’s best surf spots. “Costa Rica has been on the surf map for years now but there are still so many beaches that have yet to be discovered or have fallen from the lime light as I found out while making this documentary.” – Christopher Crass
“Seeking Swells” features interviews with local and international surf legends, including Kurt van Dyke, Edgar “Manolo” Leon, Ricardo “Tano,” Marco Picado, Roberto Vargas, Willy Vargas, and the Costa Rica Dive and Surf Team.
