About

Shigeru repairs a broken surfboard he discovers while working as a garbage man. Together with his girlfriend, he becomes determined to learn how to ride it and join the local surf community. Shot in Takeshi Kitano’s typical deadpan style, this is a quietly touching story that sits in fascinating contrast to the director’s more famous crime sagas.
