The Occumentary – 25th Anniversary
Presented by Jack McCoy and Mark Occhilupo
Wednesday, 28 August, 2024 @ 6:30 PM – 8:15 PM
To celebrate the 25th anniversaries of Mark Occhilupo’s 1999 ASP World Title and multi award winning film The Occumentary, legendary surf film maker Jack McCoy and Occhilupo will be hitting the east coast of Australia.
It will be the first time ever the film has been shown in cinemas on the big screen and to commemorate the event, McCoy has remastered the film to give it a complete new look.
The film was the first ever feature documentary of a surfer and instantly became a cult classic, with many still regarding it as one of the best surf movies ever produced. As with all of McCoy’s films, the sound track is next level and features the likes of the Foo Fighters, Ed Kuepper, Powderfinger and Yothu Yindi.
Throughout the tour, the audience will be treated with McCoy, Occhilupo and special guests will share untold stories and never seen before footage from Occhilupo’s career, as well as a Q and A session prior to the film to delve deeper into this special moment in time.
“The best surfing bio-film ever made.” – The Surfers Journal.
“One of surfing’s most inspirational stories. The comeback to end all comebacks!” – Surfer Mag.
