Skateboarding DVD, Stacey Peralta, 91 mins.
Award-winning documentary that took the Sundance Film Festival by storm.
This is the story of a gang of discarded kids who virtually revolutionized skateboarding with an aggressive style, awe-inspiring moves and street smarts, and, in the process, transformed youth culture forever.
Featuring historic old-skool skating footage, exclusive interviews and a blistering rock soundtrack, Dogtown and Z-Boys captures the meteoric rise of the Zephyr skateboarding team from Venice’s Dogtown, a tough “locals only” beach with a legacy of outlaw surfing.
With rare appearances by skateboarding icons Tony Alva, Jay Adams and Tony Hawk, DOGTOWN AND Z-BOYS is a thrilling all-access tour of the birth of a pop culture phenomenon.
Highly recommended.
