LA TORCHE || Short Film

A few months ago, French director Hugo Manhes touched down in Pointe de la Torche, Brittany, in the dead of winter to create a surf film like no other.

 Setting up his camera at 2.30 AM, Manhes was joined by local surfers Ian Fontaine and Gaspard Larsonneur who took to the waters for a nighttime battle with the waves lit up by 120,000-watt neon lights.

 The result is this haunting six-minute-long short film, entitled LA TORCHE, which transforms the famous surf spot into a psychedelic dreamscape.

Enjoy!
