Združeni kotalkarji

Slovenski opis filma:

Medtem ko še zadnjim kotalkarskim centrom v ZDA grozi zaprtje, dokumentarec razkriva skupnost tisočih pristašev, ki se v rasno napetem ozračju borijo za to, da bi rešili podtalno temnopolto subkulturo rolkarjev.

Ta svet je že več rodov neznan večini njihovih rojakov, čeprav je iz njega izšlo nekaj največjih svetovnih glasbenih talentov. Dokumentarec "Združeni kotalkarji" v režiji in produkciji Dyane Winkler in Tine Brown je prejel nagrado občinstva za najboljši dokumentarni film na festivalu Tribeca leta 2018.

Originalni opis filma:

It took nearly thirty years for mainstream America to discover the brilliance of jazz. Similarly, blues, R&B, and hip-hop were met with prejudice before being recognized for their artistic brilliance. Looking at the recurring pattern of struggle for acceptance faced by African American artists, UNITED SKATES follows the next artistic movement still undiscovered by the American mainstream as they endure the same prejudice and stereotyping as jazz, a century ago. Currently in the African American community, there is an underground social and artistic movement hitting roller rinks. It is a fusing of hip-hop dance styles such as "breaking" and "animating" with the speed of old school quad roller skates. This documentary will use the talent and cool-factor of this world to break down the stereotypes these skaters are battling in order to simply do what they love.
