we all have our preconceptions, more or less ill advised, on about every other subject… let's mention brazilian skateboarding, and you most likely will have more than one. this new production by the one and only “cotinz” should shake about every single one of them, thanks to a total immersion into the local underground, doubled with a certain lack of respect for what “the rules” about skate video making are supposed to be… take a seat, this is a diamond even if in the rough that we have as a live exclusive for you!
this docu-film is a drag. don't bother watching it. ain't worth your fucking precious time, seriously.

life should be simple as it is, so does skateboarding and it’s cinematography style, like this one below! this one is so obviously shot with a vx1000wit' a schneider optics death lens attachment. the raw beauty ov it all! chekkit, yo! \m/
our fall 2016 campaign shoot took place in puerto peñasco, mexico. in this 3-minute documentary, we follow a small, but energized community of skateboarders and help them build a new skate park.
...
community service - puerto peñasco, mexico.
the levi's® skateboarding crew broke ground at puerto peñasco's newest park, cutting the ribbon with the city’s mayor in march, 2016. they found the time to also build several new diy obstacles at the existing park and also hit the streets, encountering a handful of rad spots with the local skaters.
peace park is a documentary about a turf war ragging in a small park in the heart of montreal’s downtown core. fighting for the public space is a community of lifers that consists of drug dealers, crack addicts, alcoholics, prostitutes, and the homeless. there is also a community of skaters who use this spot because it’s perfect for skateboarding. the two communities battle daily over the space, but there exists a larger conflict with the city and broader elements of society who see both groups as “undesirable”.
local skateboarder david bouthillier has chronicled these conflicts for the past 12 years as the city and police embarked on measures bordering on the absurd in an attempt to rid the park of these communities and clean up the area’s image.
the documentary explores the historical importance of the neighborhood and how a series of attempts by the city to clean up the area has contributed to the current situation in the park. it looks at the present political conflicts between corporate greed and grassroots artists, and how different forms of underground culture, particularly skateboarding and graffiti, have made their mark on the public space.
a theme of tolerance is weaved throughout the story, told through interviews and personal accounts matched with raw, violent and highly disturbing footage that reveals a unique glimpse into the reality of the street life for many metropolitans.
a human perspective is maintained by showing individuals with problems that need addressing instead of a single problem while highlighting broader social and urban problems.
