An 'idyllic' island community dramatically changed forever by the 'discovery' of the 'perfect' wave in the 1970s. The remarkable and previously untold true story of the first surf pioneers to ‘discover' the 'Point' on the isolated Indonesian island of Nias and the dramatic consequences and the devastating social and ecological repercussions for the people and place that followed. A contemporary, cautionary tale of paradise lost.

POINT OF CHANGE is a compelling and dramatic documentary feature film told through a unique blend of previously unseen super 8 archive, contemporary interview and beautiful animation, with an original score composed by Academy-Award winning composer Stephen Warbeck and featuring exclusive new music tracks by Paul Oakenfold and local musicians, to reveal an all too resonant picture of a society changed inexorably by powerful economic & environmental forces outside of their control.
