Résumés(1)
The first feature-length documentary about the rise of skateboarding in Czechoslovakia presents a gripping tale of the search for freedom in a society stifled by the communist regime. Unique archive shots set to a driving punk soundtrack introduce us to the cult masters of the board and their never-ending party ride through the grey days of Normalization.

The atmosphere of the period was such that the guys who lived there told me that the life under the communist regime was shit but when you rebelled against it a little, it was not so bad. I liked it. The documentary is about skateboarding as well as about the period.
