Between the Lines explores the Vietnam War through the prism of the surfing sub-culture. The film offers unique insight into the dramatic effect that the Vietnam War and draft had on young American men who rode waves.

Between the Lines explores the choice that most draft age surfers faced during the Vietnam War era: either go to war or evade the draft. It was one or the other. Between the Lines delves into the lives of two surfers who choose opposite paths. Pat Farley and Brant Page.

While following the lives of these two surfers the film chronicles the impact of the Vietnam War on the surfing lifestyle. From the peaceful shores of Hawaii to the canopy jungles of Vietnam, Between the Lines excavates the surfing cultures response to an extraordinary circumstance.

The film was well put together and undoubtedly deepened my respect and appreciation for our veterans in the lineup. It reminded me that the freedoms and liberties we all dearly appreciate did not result from a historical fluke. Rather, generations of men (including the young generation of surfers during the Vietnam war) have put their lives on the line to build this great nation. You all have my deepest respect and appreciation. I believe that (if you get a chance to watch this film) it will change you both as a surfer and (more importantly) as a person.
