Land of Skate || (Official Documentary)
As the world continues to divide, in the Land of Skate people are
uniting. Children and youth in countries caught up by conflict and
inequality are being empowered through skateboarding.
The documentary produced by Ghost Digital Cinema, directed by renowned
filmmaker Ty Evans and supported by Nimia was filmed on location in
Afghanistan, Cambodia and South Africa, and captures breathtaking shots
and an often unseen perspective of these countries. It goes behind the
doors of Skateistan’s Skate Schools worldwide for the first time, at
which over 1,800 children and youth are gaining access to education and
opportunities. It delves deeper into the inspiring stories of Latifa,
Ahmed, Soso and Srey Pich who, despite living in difficult
circumstances, have found a route to empowerment through skateboarding
and education.
The Land of Skate explores how Skateistan has impacted the lives of
children and youth in these locations but also how skateboarding has
created a global community in a divisive world. Latifa, Ahmed, Soso and
Srey Pich may be from opposite sides of the globe, but they are citizens
of the same land, united by skateboarding.
Sit back and hit play.
