quote from Youtube:

“One of the very first skateboard films, directed by Claude Jutra in 1965. This documentary captures young skateboarders in search of freedom. As popular in the 1960s as it is today, skateboarding is a spectacle to behold. But a law prohibits it on the street.”

Directed by Claude Jutra – 1966
