Movie Info & Cast

Synopsis

Camille (Rachelle Vinberg) is an introverted Long Island teen whose passion for skateboarding paves the way for her to join a very particular in-crowd: a tight-knit, all-girl skateboarding crew in NYC called Skate Kitchen. In this “skate or die” new life, their friendship and camaraderie gives Camille a place to belong – and a place to escape to as her home life falls apart. Girls gotta stick together in the male-dominated world of skateboarding, after all. But will their support extend to Camille’s love life, when she falls for a mysterious skateboarder dude (played by Jaden Smith)? An authentic & atmospheric teen tale, Skate Kitchen is the first narrative feature from writer/director Crystal Moselle, who previously helmed the award-winning documentary The Wolfpack.

In the end, Skate Kitchen is a frustrating film that’s supposed to elicit a heady sense of freedom, girl power and a rush of sisterhood. It doesn’t. Instead, one is left feeling vaguely hollow.

The movie’s disinclination to judge doesn’t deprive it of a point of view. Skate Kitchen is unfailingly compassionate to, and genuinely appreciative of, the people it chronicles.

In Skate Kitchen, the kids come as they are, and they’re wildly fascinating.
