The impetus of the film – the two groups of skaters driving through California in cool old cars – almost classifies it as a classic car movie. Yet presented in a brutal and somehow dreamscape editing style, featuring frenetic scribblings of the renowned zine-artist Sergej Vutuc and an original score composed by the LA-based duo No Age, it turns out as a subtle time warp, an inter-web of a community, emotions and tensions, an ode to a lifelong affair with skateboarding.
