AGOS (Waves) gives us a glimpse of the life of surfer Mocca Eduzma as she goes about her daily life in a rural village in the Philippines. It goes beyond the stereotype of the surfing lifestyle is while at the same time exploring its fundamental values like perseverance, simplicity and passion. The aim was to create a documentary that was visually stunning with a clean, narrative aesthetic and to be able to create a balance between an action-packed surf film and a documentary. The subject narrates the events of the film herself without the aid of a narrator or the question and answer format. In that way, the documentary becomes more personal and the subject is able to tell us her story on her own terms. As in with meeting new people or characters in real life, the documentary first introduces Mocca and gives a glimpse of where she’s from, what she does, and establishes what’s important to her. It then proceeds to reveal the different complexities of her life as she encounters situations and events that could make her rethink who she is and where she is in her life.
