Ride Your Wave
Sun-drenched and vivid Japanese animation film about a young surfer saved by an older fireman.
Please note that this film is in Japanese, with Dutch subtitles.
First-year student Hinako picked a college by the sea, so she could do a lot of surfing in her spare time. Her life changes when she is rescued from a burning house by the slightly older fireman Minato. Despite the age difference, something beautiful starts to blossom between the two and nothing seems to stand in the way of their happiness. Until fate intervenes, in a love story that’s as magical as it is heart-wrenching. (source: imaginefilmfestival.nl)
