...i'll never look @ meteors the same way again...(Fallen - VIDEO)

Watch the entire life span of a freshly born meteor as it comes to terms with life, and its inevitable splashy end. This short film is all too bittersweet.

the beautiful intl. language of surf: The Boys From Ponta Preta (short film)

Set on the Cape Verde islands off the western coast of Africa, this short film shows how three young men struggling with the country’s limited opportunities took the tourists’ sport of kitesurfing and made it their own – with one even becoming world champion. Titik, Mitu and Djo explain how they spent their early days skipping school at the beach and learning from the global surf community any way that they could. Now they have set up a surf school that teaches the tourists, and offers hope to others who are stuck in the island’s slums.
