INTERNATIONAL PANORAMA
Spanish Premiere
The career and life philosophy of Jack Johnson, from his beginnings on a surfboard and directing independent films to his global acclaim as a musician. Clearly structured into dedicated chapters covering his three great passions, the film combines family archive material (his childhood movies are unmissable) with candid testimony from the artist himself and his inner circle. Featuring meticulous editing and a luminous soundtrack scored by Johnson and Hermanos Gutiérrez, it explores how those adventures, friendship, and the spirit of exploration in the water shaped his musical identity. The result shines through the subject’s humility, warmth, and vulnerability, offering an intimate and transparent diary on the evolution of a charismatic creator who has made simplicity his primary artistic virtue.
Cast: Jack Johnson, Kelly Slater, Rob Machado, Gerry Lopez, Chris Malloy, G. Love, Ben Harper, John Florence.
