Plot summary
MADE IN VENICE takes you on a rippin' ride with the skateboarders of Venice, from "raising hell" on the beach in their teens to turning pro in the 80's and putting "street skating" on the global map. But their biggest challenge of all wasn't becoming skateboarding legends, it was about getting what they dreamed of, and really wanted... a skatepark on Venice Beach for the community and the pro skates of tomorrow.

Must See Skateboarding Documentary
VIRUS
Skate Boarding is a virus, they should not be at the beach, but at a park far away. They have even overlapped into skateboarding in public places smashing into people and becoming a complete nuisance. Ban skate boarding in public places & enforce if. Unfortunately I cant give this a minus 10, but have to settle for a 1.
More Than A Skateboard Movie
Madde In Venice is, in addition, to being a skateboard movie, is a movie with a heart. Packed with marvelous skating sequences, it is an entertaining story of community activism and how government bureaucracy can be overcome by a dedicated group of citizens intent on achieving their goal. Venice Beach, the birthplace of skateboarding remained without a skateboarding venue for decades. Other cities had parks built, but Venice Beach was without one. The skateboarders banded together and fought " City Hall " and now Venice Beach has a magnificent site for everyone to enjoy. This movie portrays the history of this city and skateboarding. Great photography. NOT TO BE MISSED !
