The Crest

Two cousins on opposite sides of America, both surfers and unaware of the other's existence, discover they are both descendants of An Ri, the last King of the Blasket Islands, a collection of rocky outcrops off the western-most point of Ireland. The islands, surrounded by treacherous ocean, were once home to a community of people whose culture was untouched by outside influence. The cousins meet for the first time in Ireland on a quest to explore their shared heritage. They learn what has been passed down to them from those who came before and to surf the waters of their ancestors. Their's is a story of family, immigration and the value of tradition and culture.
