08/10/2007:// Director Jarrod Tallman's new film revealing a unique insight into one of the northern hemisphere's hardest-breaking lefthand pointbreak waves has had it's world premiere in Northern Spain.
Mundaka is an in-depth journey into the history of both the Basque town and its mystical rivermouth wave which has contributed over the years to the exposure of the entire community worldwide.
The 46 minute-long documentary encompasses all aspects of the evolution of the town with unique testimonies from the local people - ranging from the fishermen, local surfers, restaurant and bar owners, and the younger generation - as well as “visitors”, including many of pro surfers who take over the break for two weeks every October for the Billabong Mundaka Pro.
The quality of surfing vision also pays tribute to the legendary left, which offers long and deep tubes breaking along the sand bar in the mouth of the Guernika river, with cliffs and mountains overlooking the Urdaibai reserve.
As well as directing, Tallman co-wrote Mundaka with David Malcolm. They forged a close collaboration with the people of Mundaka, in the likes of Guillermo Lecumberri Isasi, one of the producers.
It's been 30 years since the first surfers arrived, the village plays host to the Billabong Pro Mundaka, one.
The film charts how the town people cope with the transformation of a slow-paced village into a bustling destination for surfers, spectators, media, and travelers exposes the fragile relationship between the town and the event.
The documentary will be shown at various locations around the world throughout 2008
