Skateistan

A short film about an emerging skate scene on the streets of Kabul.
Yep, thats Kabul, Afghanistan.
It isn’t clear who’s behind this cultural infusion – an individual, surf-skate corp, non-profit, government or a PSIOPs commander? – but the kids definitely seem into it.
Stoke on the streets of Kabul. How bad can that be?
