DEFINITELY ONE TO WATCH!!!!
When five world-class surfers travel to New Guinea in search of undiscovered waves they found themselves "Isolated".
The new surf movie directed by Justin LePera has evolved to an important
human rights cause for the people of West Papua. The crew traveled to
the highly dangerous "No Media Zone" to shoot the film.
Through their interactions with the indigenous people's they
encountered, who often spoke about topics that could endanger their
lives, the team uncovered a dire human rights situation and deadly
conflict in the region
The West Papuans message is now heard in the world and "Isolated" plays a very important role.
"We were exposed to the human rights situation in West Papua during
filming and I knew this project had become much more important than your
average surf film", explains Ryan Phillippe, narrator and executive
producer.
Brittany Snow, Leven Rambin, Jeb Corliss, Curren Caples, Greg Hetson,
Jack McCoy and many others have been helping spread the word of the West
Papuans over the world.
Take a look at the complete list of surf movies.
