The Cigarette Surfboard is an award-winning documentary that follows the inspiring journey of surfer and activist Taylor Lane. Frustrated by the toxic waste washing up on California's shores, Taylor builds a fully functional surfboard from 10,000 cigarette butts he collected from his local beaches. What begins as a creative art project quickly evolves into a powerful platform for environmental advocacy.
