Skate Kitchen carved out space for marginalised skaters

Skater and writer Jessica Holland celebrates the impact of Skate Kitchen, Crystal Moselle's Sundance-nominated NYC coming-of-age tale.

Jessica Holland reflects on the impact of Skate Kitchen, which channelled the feel of an Instagram feed circa-2017 to explore the world of a group of marginalised skateboarders. Released in 2017, writer-director Crystal Moselle’s third film emphasised the potential of social media as a rallying cry for female skaters ignored by the predominantly male skate media.
