From TMDB usersThe Cigarette surfboard is a passionate documentary style film depicting some of the ugly truths of the tobacco industry, butts. Taylor and Ben bring us through a gorgeous cinematic experience leading us all around the world, introducing us to scientists and athletes, but ultimately driving real policy change.
Such an Inspiration! I first saw this film at my MiraCosta college late last year! I got to speak to Ben and see two of the boards featured in the film, which was super cool. I was recommended to go to the showing by my Geology teacher at the time and I am so thankful that I did. This film not only educated me on conservation, but inspired me to further my education in environmental sustainability and deepen my overall involvement in the surf community. I can not recommend watching enough, it is a good film made by good people who truly care to spread awareness and keep our oceans clean.
