Skates
2018, English. Directed by Maddelin McKenna.
Set against the backdrop of a bleak suburban town on New Year's Eve 1979, a young boy working at the local roller-skating rink forms a bond with a girl skating there that night. This is a delicate story about 2 identities, who find solace in each other shared feelings of loneliness and isolation on the last night of the year.
