Dogtown and Z-Boys

Synopsis

Narrated by Sean Penn and directed by skateboarding legend Stacy Peralta, this award-winning documentary tells the story of a gang of discarded kids who revolutionized skateboarding with an aggressive style, awe-inspiring moves and street smarts, and in the process transformed youth culture forever. Featuring historic old-school skating footage, exclusive interviews and a blistering rock soundtrack, the film captures the meteoric rise of the Zephyr skateboarding team from Venice’s Dogtown, a tough “locals only” beach with a legacy of outlaw surfing. With rare appearances by skateboarding icons Tony Alva, Jay Adams and Tony Hawk, Dogtown And Z-Boys is a thrilling all-access tour of the birth of a pop culture phenomenon.
