Directed by

Synopsis

In South Africa between Durban and J.Bay lies approx 1000kms of untamed topographical and oceanic paradise, locally called 'Wild Coast'. For local surfers Lungani Memani, Andrew Lange and Avuyile Ndamase, it's their home. Every Year in June the ocean swells to it's peak, hosting the countries largest surf conditions and also becomes host to the sardine run bringing together a huge marine bio-diversity including many species of sharks. This documentary goes up close with Pro Surfers Lungani, Andrew and Avuyile, the family traditions and tribulations alongside a hand selected group of the best shark experts from the region to uncover the real secrets and stories that surround the shark stigma that exists in South Africa.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 3

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
