The Radical Freedom of Skateboarding in a Patriarchal World Dina Duma's film "Skateboarding Is Not for Girls" has been making waves at festivals, but its impact extends far beyond the screen.
This Macedonian filmmaker's latest work is not just about skateboarding – it's a powerful commentary on the struggle for autonomy and independence in a society where women are often relegated to the periphery.
The story follows Adela, an 11 year old girl who turns to skateboarding as a way to cope with her family's financial struggles and her sister's forced marriage.
