■ About the movie "KIDS"
The film "KIDS" (1995), directed by Larry Clark, is a vivid documentary-like portrayal of a day in the life of teenagers living on the streets of New York in the 1990s. The fact that the atmosphere of skateboarding culture is captured so vividly on screen is what makes it a film that is still talked about in the street scene today.
The boys who appear in the film are not actors, but rather "real New York skaters."
The film captures the everyday life of the skate community at the time, beyond any staged footage, including cruising through Central Park, the excitement among friends, and people roaming the streets late at night with their boards in hand.
While the work portrays the darker side of teen life, such as unprotected sex, HIV, drugs, and violence, the "real life of the 90s streets" is always present in the background. The stickers on the walls of skate shops, the graffiti in the city, the loose fashion... all of these are points where you can see the roots that still run through today's streets.
"KIDS" is not just a film that raises questions. It is a one-of-a-kind cultural documentary that captures the era when skateboarding was at the center of culture with such warmth that you can almost smell it. It is a work that anyone who loves street culture should watch at least once, like a "textbook."
