Backstreet Atlas || A Skateboarding Documentary

Backstreet Atlas is a short film documenting two skateboarders' journey from Boston to New York - approximately 212 miles. Equipped with just skateboards, tents, new shoes, and whatever else would fit in their backpacks, Adam and Zach set off on a two week journey along the East Coast, attempting to cover roughly 30 miles a day and using their network of friends to help them out as they went. The aim? To rediscover a feeling that has been partially lost in this modern age - 'the personal connection with a place, its characteristics, and its characters.' Check it out below.
