Locally-made surf movie to premiere at Ballina RSL Club
A premiere showing of Marcus Baker’s new surf movie, Nowhere Going Some-where, at the Ballina RSL Club on Saturday night, December 12, chronicles the rise of three young Lennox Head surfers who are chasing careers on the world professional circuit.
It will be a fundraiser for the Lennox National Surfing Reserve Association, which in turn donates any money it raises to groups such as Australian Seabird Rescue and landcare and dunecare groups.
The featured surfers are Adam Melling, Stuart Kennedy and James Wood.
Marcus said he filmed the surfers over the past 12 years as they made their journeys to the pro ranks.
He said he also filmed the Billabong Pro at Jeffreys Bay in South Africa last year, and included in the footage is Byron Bay star Danny Wills.
Marcus has made seven movies of the past seven years under the banner of his production company, On Rail Video productions.
The screening of the hour-long movie starts at 7.30. Admission is $5 for adults, $3 for children and $10 for a family.
