Dirs. Shinji Shiozakoi & Felipe Santiago
\nSynopsis: an object of inspiration for artists discussing the position of skateboarding with artistic intent, a common place in the sports universe for market facilitation. He has rarely managed to adapt to the level of regulation and objectivity that characterize different activities as a sport without going against the main desires of the skateboarders. Contemporary street skate is an individual expression that happens in constant adaptation to the urban environment, in places that were not designed for practice.
\nIn this context – rich in subjectivity – there is a weak interest in competition among participants who have little or nothing to do with what can be considered an \u201cathlete\u201d.<\/p>\n
