A very real film, maybe because of Liu Bing's homie relationship with Zack and Keira, they record their most real thoughts in front of the camera without reservation, plus the smooth skateboard footage and soundtrack, the whole film looks like The rhythms are all light and intimate, as if they were your friends, telling you their stories. Under the theme of domestic violence, the documentary contains a lot of elements, family relationships, marriage, work, and alcoholism. Just like a bunch of problems that this group of skateboard teenagers had to face when they were growing up, they were all presented to the audience. Some people choose to self-destruct and make the poor worse; some choose to complete self-redemption through records; some choose to persevere silently, even if they can only see a little hope. But at the end of the film, the three skateboarding teenagers are still trying to stick to their lives, life still goes on. Like kiera said, this documentary is like a free therapy, in which even young people who have no experience of domestic violence can find the helpless shadow of their own growing up. But luckily for them, they also have skateboarding as their emotional outlet and remedy.
