Film Synopsis:

In search of waves and one of Indonesia’s most elusive reptiles, the new wildlife documentary from Australian film maker and professional snake catcher Luka R blends risky field research, road trip filmmaking and faux documentary into a moving story of friendship and obsession that explores our complicated relationships with each other and the natural world.

Snakes and Surf Breaks follows a daring and amateur team’s 3 month expedition across the Indonesian archipelago in search of a Cobra. Their journey takes them through some of thickest tropical jungles, flooded caves, remote coastlines and dense urban sprawls of one one of the worlds fastest growing countries. Capturing all the moments of tension, chaos and absurdity that comes with a wild and mostly unplanned chase.

At its core, Snakes and Surf Breaks is about a pursuit, not only to encounter and document the Cobra but also the pursuit of dreams and the reasons why we chase them. What starts as onperson’s focussed mission sprawls out into a shared adventure full of risks, unexpected discoveries and unscripted comedy.
