Director Crystal Moselle hits another landmark for her amazing ability to tell story through moving picture. Her eye for realism is quickly apparent with every shot. Her shots bring warmth and truth like no other. Although the dialogue may seem to lead nowhere which is almost part of the beauty the story is there. It's a group of girls meeting for the first time and quickly bonding through a shared interest getting into a male dominated skate hole. They start hanging out "chilling" at its simplest. Skaters being skaters in New York City. As they traverse the lively streets getting into vans with people they've just met, some they might know already for an ultra funny smoke session. A great moment with some great laughs. The old man giving out candies...watch out for him! The acting wasn't five stars but it's real. And real is comfortable. Watching this makes you real comfortable. It's almost like your laying on a couch with all your friends in the middle of a New York City skate park with the coolest girls in the city. I expect great things to follow with love, friendship, growth, and skateboarding. "Must watch, binge worthy"
