Indie comedy starring Augie T, Taiana Tully, Branscombe Richmond, Daniella Monet, Shawn Mokuahi Garnett, Alex Farnham, Kealani Warner and Matt Corboy. The film centers on an ex surf pro who is forced to take a job at a beachfront hotel teaching obnoxious tourists how to surf. Soon he's the tennis pro, the yoga instructor, the handyman — he might even be key to saving this family-run, Hawaiian-owned hotel.
PRESS:
“… Consistently hilarious… Schaefer has made an engaging and funny movie in a time when we all could really use a good laugh."
"Inevitably, this will be compared to the kind of zany, character-driven comedies that Adam Sandler still makes (when he’s not starring in prestige dramas) and the comparison is complimentary.”
