Skateistan: Four Wheels and a Board in Kabul (Kai Sehr, 2011): Germany/U.S.A.

Reviewed by Linda Sweatt.  Viewed at the Lobero Theater, 2011 Santa Barbara International Film Festival.

Skateistan: Four Wheels and a board in Kabul is a documentary all about bringing skateboarding to Afghanistan and building a skateboard school that brings all together. The pictures tell the story:

Skateistan is a beautifully inspiring film of transforming lives through the skateboard. It is truly amazing how everyone came together to build the school uniting classes, sects, gender and religions; building peace. I would highly recommend this film whether or not you are a skateboarder!
