"Sliding Liberia" follows four young surfers to Liberia in search of more than perfect waves. Risking everything to explore the West African country devastated by decades of war, they record the stories of people they meet—people like Alfred, who became Liberia's first surfer after finding a bodyboard while fleeing from rebels. Besides rediscovering a break that could be the best-kept secret in the surfing world, they find something more important—a way to travel responsibly in the 21st century.
Lived in Liberia from 70-72 so this brings back many a pleasant memories-except for the peace keeping force. Curious about the undertow which can be fierce. Looks like a lot of fun. Message of people changing the world is right on the money.

I saw this movie this past weekend in Jackson Wy for its first public showing. This movie was excellent in so many ways. The cinematography, the surfing footage, and the story of Liberia is incredible! If anyone has the chance to watch it I highly recommend it.
