According IF Sam Worthington’s surf movie ‘Drift’ will start shoot on next week.

The film will be directed by O’Neill and debutant Ben Nott (the commercials and action sports film director)

“Drift will resonate internationally on many fronts, The story is about the birth of the relationship between Australian surf culture and global youth culture that still resonates around the globe today. The wandering surf lifestyle is now the mystical ‘dream life’ for many, but in the early days the quest for freedom was a perilous and uncertain journey.” the directors say in a statement.

More than 70 Western Australian crew will work on the six-week shoot.

Drift will be shot on the remote Western Australian coastline including locations from Cape Naturaliste to Cape Leeuwin, the Margaret River, Augusta, Gracetown and Nannup. Many of the surfing scenes will take place at Margaret River’s Surfer’s Point, while some background footage will be used from last April’s Margaret River Pro competition. (according IF)
