When six teenage boys came together as a skateboarding team in the 1980s, they reinvented not only their chosen sport but themselves too as they evolved from insecure outsiders to the most influential athletes in the field. This documentary chronicles their epic rise, using awesome archival footage and moving first-person accounts from Brigade members Steve Caballero, Tommy Guerrero, Tony Hawk, Mike McGill, Lance Mountain, and Rodney Mullen, among others. Through passion, drive, creativity, and a surprising sense of teamwork, they revitalized the sport and influenced generations to come. This is the first screening of this film in Arizona, so don't miss what critics are calling one of the best documentaries of the year.
