Friday 9 June 2023 - 8pm
Centre d'hébergement collectif du Bois-de-Bay. Route du Bois-de-Bay 19, 1242 Satigny
Screening of the film Learning To Skateboard In A Warzone (if you're a girl) by Carol Dysinger in partnership with the Hospice General and Rookie Slash
Skateistan is a school where young Afghan girls from poor backgrounds learn to read, write... and do tricks on the pipe! Guided by all-terrain teachers, they learn balance, autonomy, movement and how to stand up. This funny and touching film won the 2020 Oscar for best short documentary. It reminds us that sport, and skateboarding in particular, breaks down social classes, strengthens... and allows us to laugh together!
Free outdoors screening, preceded by a skateboarding activity and snacks with the association Rookie Slash
