North Stars (Dir. Yentl Toubol) lives at the crossroads of a surf film and a visual portrait. Depicting the perennially stylish Adrien Toyen through the eyes of some of his closest friends and shapers who’ve inspired his dive into alternative designs, journeying from Reunion Island to Australia, Indonesia, Biarritz and the cliffs of Western Ireland, it’s an education in the art of being free.
Featuring: Mikey February, Kobe Hughes, Andrew Kidman, Shane Sykes, Koldo Illumbe, Tom Morat, Lee-Ann Curren, Peta, Hanna Scott, Micky Clarke and more.
