Bones Brigade: An Autobiography
Documentary - 2012 – USA – English – 110 minutes
Featuring Tony Hawk and directed by Stacy Peralta (DOGTOWN & Z-BOYS), BONES BRIGADE: AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY is a very personal story of a group of young, dorky, straight laced American kids who did the impossible through a combination of work, skill, passion, and the belief that anything is possible: they succeeded in turning skateboarding from a fringe pastime to a thrilling action sport filled with extraordinary gravity defying feats and generated a billion dollar industry. The Bones Brigade was the team they formed that revolutionized not only their lives, but international popular culture as well.
Director: Stacy Peralta
Film Festivals: Sundance Film Festival, Hot Docs, Sheffield Doc/Fest

"This is the coolest film I've ever seen." - Scott Knopf, FILM THREAT
