Synopsis

Canary Islands are one of the best surfing destinations in Europe during the whole year. They are known as European Hawaii with the best climate in the Spain. Sofía is a short documentary film about the life of a young surfer girl Sofía De Tomás, Canary Islands’ surf champion from La Orotava, Tenerife. Through interviews and cinematic shoots, the film demonstrates her surfing lifestyle and the beginning of her surf career. Surfing for her is a sport that traps you, and once you start you can’t stop, you want more. It’s something she can’t live without, just like art. And she really knows how to connect those two. If she’s not surfing, painting is something that helps her express too. Official Selections 2019: New York Surf Film Festival, Surf Movie Night Canarias.
