Summary
At thirty, Brice still has yet to make the transition from adolescence
to adulthood, not that he is any hurry. He is quite happy
sponging off his wealthy father and enjoying the carefree life of a
teenager. His latest obsession is surfing, which is slightly
problematic since he lives on a region of the coast whose defining
characteristic is a complete lack of anything resembling a surf.
Undeterred, Brice cherishes his surfboard and hosts riotous beach
parties, living the surf life without the surf. When his father
is arrested for money laundering, Brice’s world suddenly falls
apart. Being unfit for work of any kind, the only way he can now
sustain his lifestyle is to rob a bank...
