1.5 hours documentary has many scenes of three people skateboarding. Skateboarding is a way for them to get free and escape from real life for a while. There is a great clip in the first half: the shots of Kyle and Zach skateboarding alternate. They crossed all kinds of obstacles, crossed the street corner and turned around. When everything seemed to be going well, Kyle's skateboard broke down. "All the bad things are back." The freshness of skateboarding teenagers in rotten tomatoes is 100%, with an average score of 8.8. Alan French, a film critic, commented on this documentary: "You think you will study the skateboarding world, but in fact it provides a lot of texts about growth, domestic violence and poor life."

Skateboarding is a hobby of three teenagers, but it is only a microcosm of happiness. Kyle faces the troubles of race, poverty and work; Zach and his girlfriend Nina have their own child Elliot, but they separated because Zach got drunk and hit Nina. Liu Bing, his younger brother and mother have been subjected to violence by his stepfather. He has been unable to face all this for a long time. "I don't want to think of him, I will feel scared and trembling." In documentaries, Liu Bing is often the role of questioner. He asked Nina why she could stand Zach for so long. In the conversation with his mother, he also asked similar questions, and the reply was not unexpected. "Sometimes he is bad, but most of the time he is good to me." In the dialogue with Kerry, Liu Bing talked about why he made this documentary: "I made this documentary because my stepfather often beat me when I was a child. I can't figure out why I saw my story from you. "
