The
Essence of Adolescence is an extreme sports film featuring teenage boys
from the Sunshine Coast in British Columbia, Canada. The movie celebrates
the exuberance of youth expressed through snowboarding, skiing, skateboarding,
BMX riding, hilarious wipeouts and teenagers just being carefree kids.
The film’s action is accompanied by rap, punk and reggae music
adding to the overall mood and enriching the viewer’s glimpse into
global youth culture. From the extreme performance, to the directing
and editing, this film is entirely made by teens.
