A Ply In The Champagne

The Shorties: A Ply In The Champagne // A film by Martin Jackson

Part 3 of “The duct tape trilogy” sees the intrepid beach cleaning robot land in hot water.
This hard hitting documentary chronicles the fall out from the now infamous Plyre festival, a luxury surf event that failed spectacularly…..or did it?
In this instagram world it’s all about your bragging rights…..and your lefts.

The Shorties

Short films are a central pillar of modern surf culture, a creative outlet for sharing stories and inspiring stoke. Here at the London Surf / Film Festival presented by VANS we wanted to celebrate the short and give homegrown filmmaking talent a platform to bring their visions to the surf world so we established ‘The Shorties’ which has fast become one of the most prestigious short film competitions for surf filmmakers in the world.

While the main festival is a showcase for international filmmaking, The Shorties short film contest is open exclusively to filmmakers from or based in Britain and Ireland – from both leading lights and up and coming filmmakers. The very best short films entries on the big screen as part of the festival and these shortlisted films are eligible for prestigious awards including: Shortie of the Year and Emerging Talent.

9th Annual London Surf / Film Festival is hosted 9 – 18 October at Regent St Cinema and venues across London.
