This Ain't California / Berlin & Beyond 2012
TICKETS STILL AVAILABLE at the Castro Theatre box office. Go directly to the theatre. Cash only please.



Commercial filmmaker and lifelong skater Marten Persiel's documentary is a high intensity bacchanal of Super 8 flashbacks, ultra-short jeans shorts, grainy TV advertisements, naked girls and political upheaval. Colonizing the then-empty concrete expanses of the Alexanderplatz with board in hand, East German skaters were an immediate threat to the rigid GDR regime, which responded to the sport's populist support by unsuccessfully tried to institutionalize it, creating "skating schools" and an international competitive team. Crosscutting amazing footage of the halcyon days of "roller boarding" with timely news footage to blistering 1980s German punk, This Ain't California detonates the explosive story of one of the first skateboard crews behind the Berlin Wall.
