Where We Come From

About This Movie

So, 'Where We Come From' is a skate video that really captures a vibe, you know? It's got this raw, genuine energy that reflects the passion of skate culture without any frills. The pacing's pretty fluid—scenes flow together in a way that feels more like a visual journey than just a collection of tricks. It's all about that feeling of freedom and rebellion, with practical effects that enhance the realness of the skating. The cinematography is interesting; it feels like you’re right there cruising along with the skaters. The whole thing has a really grassroots vibe, almost like you’re watching your friends skate rather than a polished production. Lucas Fiederling really knows how to convey that sense of place and community.

This film has become somewhat of a cult item among collectors, mostly due to its underground roots and the lack of mainstream distribution. Originally released in limited formats, it hasn’t seen many reissues, which adds to its scarcity. The skateboarding community holds a unique interest in this title, as it's more about the experience and feel of skating than conventional filmmaking, making it a conversation starter among collectors.
