LEARNING TO SKATEBOARD IN A WAR ZONE (if you're a girl)

This is one of the best movies of 2019 and justifiably worthy of its Oscar nomination for best short documentary. Full disclosure, it was directed by an old friend from my New York and LA days (though we haven't seen each other in person since the last century) Carol Dysinger, who deserves all the accolades she and the film are getting. Look it up, watch it, and be moved, impressed, enlightened, delighted, scared, and mindful of the realities for girls in Afghanistan.
