The future of Skateistan, Afghanistan’s first and only co-ed skateboarding school (founded in 2007) is in peril.

This short film shows the program in its prime. Sadly, with the return of the Taliban, the sense of possibility that girls gained by learning to skateboard may soon be a remnant of the past.
