Every living being on this planet has a need to connect with something greater than itself. From the tiniest snail attempting to cross a vast and unpredictable sidewalk, to each surfer ignoring their own fragile ‘shells’ every time they paddle out into the awesome power of the ocean.
Samsung believes it’s this basic need that leads to progress, and that progress always leads to more progress. As sponsor of the WSL World Championship Tour, Samsung has continually witnessed the world’s best surfers push their limits and in the process, spread the love of the sport to new and unexpected parts of the world.
The Snail was directed by AG Rojas from Park Pictures and tells an inspiring story of an Indian boy who uses the samsung phone to get access and be inspired by the Pro Surfers, in this case Gabriel Medina, John John Florence, Mick Fanning and Sally Fitzgibbons.
