Miles Pollard and Xavier Samuel passionately portray brothers with unwavering passion.

Drift, a powerful drama about the men who laid the foundation for the surfing business, now a multi-billion dollar industry, arrives from Australia, a surfing mecca that has produced many acclaimed films and actors.

The film is directed by Morgan O'Neill and Ben Nott, a duo already receiving numerous offers from Hollywood. They have succeeded in capturing both the stunning beauty and raw power of the Australian coast, unfolding a dynamic drama.

The roles of brothers Andy and Jimmy are played by Miles Pollard and Xavier Samuel. Their passionate performances, embodying pure drive, herald the arrival of new stars from the Australian film industry, following in the footsteps of Russell Crowe and Hugh Jackman. Sam Worthington, an Australian actor who rose to stardom with Avatar, was so moved by the script that he took on a significant role in his home country's production after a long hiatus.

Where will the brothers' dreams lead them?

Andy and Jimmy are brothers living in a coastal town in Western Australia, having grown up with the ocean. Their life with their mother was not easy, but their family bond, along with their love for surfing, was strong. One day, they meet JB, a nomadic photographer who drifts into town, and are deeply inspired by his way of life. The brothers quit their jobs, determined to live their dreams, and start a surf shop.



With the help of JB, his girlfriend, and loans from former colleagues, the brothers successfully expand their shop. However, the arrival of a large surf chain and entanglement in drug-related troubles begin to strain their bond.

Cornered, Andy decides to enter a high-stakes surfing competition, facing seasoned professionals. His brother, Jimmy, who could have been his strongest support, parts ways with Andy and plans to leave town. Will the brothers' dreams end here? A true tidal wave is about to crash down upon them.──.

This is the story of men who loved the sea, staked their lives on the waves, and changed the history of surfing. Immerse yourself in this moving and intense drama of brothers pursuing their dreams.
