Synopsis

BUSTIN' DOWN THE DOOR chronicles a tumultuous two-year period of competitive and cultural clashes in the mid-Seventies in the surfing Mecca of Hawaii's North Shore of Oahu when a small crew of Australians and South Africans set out with attitude and determination to change the world of surfing.

Framed around the emerging careers of World Champions-to-be Wayne "Rabbit" Bartholomew, Shaun Tomson and Mark Richards, BUSTIN' documents how these young men risked everything to become the best surfers in the world.
