Professional skateboarder, David Boots has been following his passion for skateboarding at Peace Park (place de la Paix) for the last 20 years. PEACE PARK is his first feature length documentary film, which shows an uncensored insider’s perspective of the communities that frequent the park and their struggle to survive Montreal’s attempts to gentrify its red-light district. It explores the ways the city and corporate interests view the people in the park, and looks at the way the two communities (the lifers and the skateboarders) manage to share the space through tolerance and respect.

Skateboard Party is a collection of skate footage from the 2004 Red Dragons (RDS) skate tour, making up the second skateboarding video from RDS. It's a mix of awesome skate clips and partying. It opens with Tom Green trashing a mirrored closet door and they guys smack him around over it. I didn't know he still had a career... interesting. Aboard two boats the team go to an island, with a lot of beer, to celebrate the finish of their 2004 tour.
