A surfer, a psycho killer, and sharks – what better combo for the new wild ride in ZOROA’s screening at Nouvelles Vagues?

For his third feature, Australian rising star of genre cinema Sean Byrne delivers a wickedly entertaining surprise, breathing fresh life into horror. Cleverly weaving together the clashing agendas of a group of trapped young surfers and their sadistic captor, he keeps the audience on edge with constant shifts in perspective. Add a dash of dark humor, and the result is a nerve-wracking, adrenaline-fueled crescendo to a breathtaking finale.
