Chasing the Unicorn

Chasing the Unicorn traces the history of surfing in post-war Mozambique, while searching for a mythical wave known as the African Kirra. Along the way we meet Sung Min Cho and Julia Fernando, the country’s leading surfers, and get acquainted with Mozambique’s burgeoning surf culture that has risen up in the wake of 30 years of armed conflict.

Featuring: Sung Min Cho, Eli Beukes, Julia Fernando, Jordy Smith, Brendon Gibbens, Mikey February and others.
