Synopsis:

In the south of the Vanuatu archipelago, on the mystical island of Tanna,

Lucas immerses himself in the life of remote villages, shares the daily rhythm of the inhabitants, surfs unique waves, and witnesses the fury of a volcano.

Between traditional songs, laughter, and a shared passion for the ocean, this documentary blends adventure, surf, and culture to reveal a humanity that is simple and powerful…

Through a sincere and unfiltered immersion, the unexpected invites us to slow down, to listen, and to rediscover what truly matters.

And what if it was right in front of our eyes?
