The film features six different locations – a cement factory, a mental hospital, a ghost town, an Olympic park, a factory and a post office – all abandoned.
Artistically filmed in black and white, Italian skaters; Mattia Turco, Icaro Nardi, Simone Verona, Jacopo Picozza, Carlo Cassan, Nikolò Bromo and Adalberto Rinaldiuse creatively spot skateable structures. The film follows them through graffiti-filled corridors as they give blood, sweat and tears to forge an unforgettable experience.
Directed by Turin-based director Alberto Chimenti Dezani and with videography by Patrick Delorenzi, the film captures the instinctual and abstract ways that skateboarders turn neglected locations into skateboarding biospheres.
