Sam Bleakley a former pro surfer and travel writer explores hard to reach places often misrepresented in the press. In this amazing journey he visits Liberia 10 years after the end of a civil war to tell the story of how surfing has helped a small community rebuild and grow.
Between 1989 and 2004 a civil war gripped Liberia with child soldiers, amputees and war crimes so horrific that the memories still haunt the nation to this day.
