documentary made in response to the uncertain future of the undercroft skateboarding area on london's southbank.

skateboarding on the southbank could soon be no more! since the early seventies ‘the undercroft’ - the sheltered area beneath the queen elizabeth hall on london’s southbank - has served as the home of the skateboarding community in the UK. it’s an open public-space that has brought together thousands of young people, from various backgrounds, over the last 35 years to form a harmonious and positive community. but it is now under threat!
