Movie Haiku:The “art” of skateboarding??? You bet! Like Olympic gymnasts, figure-skaters, etc, these athletes dedicate their lives to airborne flights & graceful landings that leave their earth-bound audiences breathless. Kinetic Spirit Award-winning documentary captures the competitive spirit (& psycho-social reality) of these scruffy champions from the back alleys of Southern California.
