A ravishing account of the birth of Australian surf culture, and the accompanying indie film movement.

Sydney Film Festival Review “ The film begins with a brief present-day sequence, of someone viewing and splicing a reel of film, before we are plunged into archival footage, taken from the films of the 1960s-1980s. This footage is beautiful — 16mm shots of surfers in remote beaches, of the sun rising and setting, and imagery of the water on its own. It’s good that the visuals are gorgeous, because this, largely, is all we see for 81 minutes. If you have no interest in videos of surfers, this is not the movie for you. As we watch these images, we hear the voices of various people who were a part of surf culture, of the films we are watching. They are kept offscreen until the end, which is an effective ploy."     

YOU SHOULD HAVE BEEN HERE YESTERDAY combines hundreds of hours of lovingly restored 16mm surfing footage with a salt-infused soundscape by Headland. This cinematic poem tells the story of a wild Aussie community who took off up the coast and discovered a whole new way to live. Going back to the never-before-seen camera reels to ask the question - what do we keep and what do we leave behind?

Featuring Tim Winton, Wayne Lynch, Bob McTavish, Albe Falzon, Evelyn Rich, Maurice Cole and many more. Inspired by Moonage Daydream and Jen Peedom's Mountain.
