Inner Child

About the project

A story-driven film project set along the coast of Ericeira, built around freedom, memory and connection to nature.

The film moves between surfing, the ocean and personal reflection. With attention to atmosphere, emotion and spontaneous moments, Innerchild translates a small human story into a visual experience about curiosity, letting go and learning to see again.

Ericeira is Europe’s first World Surfing Reserve, a former fishing town where life still follows the tide and the swell. That bond between people and ocean became the starting point: surfing not as performance, but as a way of returning to something simple and instinctive.
