Message On A Bottle is a film by director Eelke Dekker that features Merijn Tinga, who is better known as The Plastic Soup Surfer. Tinga wants to be the first surfer to cross the North Seat on a ‘kitefoil-board’ - covering a distance of 180 kilometres, from the Netherlands to England, all to raise awareness for a bottle deposit program in his country.

He does so on surfboard made from discarded plastic bottles - the same bottles that he wants that deposit fee on to stop them from polluting our waterways and seas. This record-breaking surf across the North Sea is the start to a national campaign and the greater fight against the soda companies and supermarkets.
