Storyline:

This urban odyssey begins with a chance meeting on the streets of Budapest, when the two filmmakers run into Sanyi, a charismatic, unruly 8-year-old who constantly tests boundaries and oscillates between childlike innocence and a sober outlook that belies his age.

Filmed in the spirit of Cinema Verité, this gripping and gritty doc will have you on the edge of your seat from Sanyi’s first breakneck-speed skateboard ride to his inevitable plummet down the rough roads of adulthood.
