Movie Reviews of Zen & Zero
Movie Review: Surfing, Ostrie-style
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a beautiful and unique film, and well worth a look for anyone who is interested in surfing as a sport, an art, or a philosophy or for those who just appreciate beautiful cinematography. That the surfers in it are all Austrians (which is a land-locked country known more for its mountains and chalets, not its aquatic sports) makes it all the more interesting. Where they learned to surf like that, I have no idea (I suspect some, at least, are veteran snowboarders), but they seem to have an incredible passion about it and bring to the sport a quiet, meditative approach that embodies the best of surfing without all the vapid, beach-culture trappings. Highly recommended.
