Big wave surfer Ian Walsh loves nothing more than family barbecues, friends and sold out movie premieres for his new film Distance Between Dreams. And what better venue to pack with salty haired, sun kissed barnacles than the World Famous La Paloma Theater? Located one block from Moonlight State Beach, La Paloma opened its doors in 1928 and has become the staple for surf film premieres.

I could go into a detailed review of the film, but you should save yourself the time and head over to Red Bull TV where it's still available to stream for free! Go go go!
