Skating 868

Movie 13 min

The skateboarding documentary takes an observational and interview style. The premise of my film is that not enough people are aware that there is a skateboarding culture in Trinidad and it is incredibly underfunded, more needs to be done in making safe places to skate and more needs to be done in making people, mainly kids feel safe and comfortable to come out and learn how to skateboard. The film looks at themes of resilience, local skaters don't have a “nice” skatepark, they have an abandoned wearhouse and the street so it shows dedication and the want for this sport/hobby as skaters use what is available to them. This film is all about showing that despite circumstances, the skateboarders of Trinidad will skate regardless
