    This reminds me of four close-up family documentaries in the spring, as well as my boyhood and seven years in my life. Over the course of these years, it may have gotten worse. This documentary is very sad. The characters happen to be Chinese and white and black, I remember black K mentioned at the...

    cat stepping in the field

    I came into contact with skateboarding at the beginning of the year. I used to think that skateboarding was something that street gangsters, homeless people, and gangsters only came into contact with. It was an unpopular and unfriendly foreign object. At that time, I didn’t quite understand what...

    "Film review" written casually for winter vacation homework (×, after watching): Part 2

    "Skateboard Boy" is definitely an underrated documentary. It does not belong to any documentary genre. If it should be classified as private video, it may also belong to the advanced form of private documentary.

    Chinese-American young Liu Bing led a photography team to find his childhood playmates,...

    Skateboarding and Alcohol - Choices

    Teenager - the age that releases all the energy without fear of the world. Shortlisted for the best record at the 91st Oscar, "Skateboard Boy" is a kind of affirmation to us born in the 90s. We still have no solution. At what moment do we really grow up, because in time, besides skateboarding...

    Escape is happy, but I don't want to choose to escape if I can

    With a score of 9.5, it doesn't use skateboarding as a street sport to promote the existence of a subculture like other skate documentaries. The emotions and weaknesses of each character in this documentary are exposed, which is not seen in other skateboarding documentaries.

    A first-person...

    Through anger and fear, I will survive this year, feasting and dancing.

      I really thought it was a (hot-blooded) sports documentary. But the beginning of the movie is clear: three skateboarders went to climb the stairs and said with a smile that they had never seen the No Entry sign, but it didn't take long to retreat from the hollow staircase-can't you be afraid of...

    Minding the gap—seeking

    The documentary Minding the gap was nominated for this year's 91st Oscar for Best Documentary. I have already begun to rub my hands in anticipation, hoping that it will harvest golden statuettes. Minding the gap tells the story of three boys who met through skateboarding, Zack (handsome white...

    Am I?

    "I always felt like I was someone else's appendage, someone's daughter, someone's sister, someone's significant other, someone's mom, and I never had a chance to figure out who I was."

    "I don't want to die alone."

    Did you skateboard today?

    A documentary that combines intimacy and sociality with emphasis on filming and less on organization

    A documentary that combines intimacy and sociality, focusing on filming and light organization. Starting from the treatment of self and friends, the director boldly exposes himself. Taking skateboarding as the entry point, the director talks about domestic violence, adolescent growth, racial...
