Skate Kitchen (2018) watch online

Skate Kitchen is a 2018 American teen drama film written and directed by Crystal Moselle based on her short film That One Day. Rachelle Vinberg stars as Camille, a teenage girl who befriends a group of female skateboarders in New York City. It is inspired by the real group of female skaters based in New York who call themselves "Skate Kitchen" and features the group's members playing fictionalized versions of themselves.

Moselle decided to create a film about the real members of the Skate Kitchen collective when she met two of them by chance on a subway train, and wrote the script based on Vinberg's own experiences. The majority of the cast were non-professional actors, who spent eight months in acting and improvisational classes prior to filming. The film was shot on location in New York City.

Skate Kitchen premiered at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival and was released on August 10, 2018 by Magnolia Pictures. It grossed $268,000 at the box office and was well received by critics. A spin-off television series made by HBO titled Betty premiered on May 1, 2020.
