When a swarthy Italian, Surfer
Dude arrives in an isolated coastal town in rural Newfoundland,
and begins to ride the big waves that break there, the
locals are perplexed. Surfing in Newfoundland? Turns out
the Dude is a smuggler, waiting for a hundred kilo “drop
off” of … something. In a shocking, heartwarming,
hilarious twist of many fates, the Dude’s scheme
becomes a giant community event, complete with a five
boat flotilla of cops, townsfolk, the immigration department,
fisheries patrol, friends, surfers, and an Old Skipper
and his wife who are more wily than all of them put together.
Surfing in Newfoundland; it’s great once you’re
in!
