Plot

In 'The Perfect Summer', Jake (Adam Horner) is a fatherless young man content with life in bustling Chicago, until his mother (Sydney Penny) whisks them away to a quaint, surf-obsessed town, the home of her distant father (Eric Roberts), Jake's enigmatic grandfather. The change is far from smooth, and Jake seems to magnetically attract trouble, including the ire of the town's resident bully, Tyler (JD Banks), who's none too pleased with Jake's budding interest in the local surfing sensation, Kayla (Katie Garfield). Marooned in this oceanic haven with no friends or surfing skills, Jake feels more lost than ever, until a chance revelation from Cody (Jason Castro), the friendly surf shop owner, turns his world around: Jake's estranged grandfather is a surfing legend. Seizing an opportunity to finally fit in, Jake pleads with his grandfather, Lou, to immerse him in the world of surfing. As Jake courageously confronts his fears and breaks through his personal barriers, he realizes that gaining the respect of his new compatriots, and capturing Kayla's affection, requires tackling the most formidable wave of his life. 'The Perfect Summer' is a heartening tale of resilience, courage, and the transformative power of an unfamiliar sport in an unfamiliar town.
