STREET DREAMS

JUNE 12TH 2009

I've always been fascinated and had much respect for Skaters & Skateboarding. I've been waiting for this movie for a long time since I read about it on the July 2007 issue of Skateboard Mag. This movie feature Pros like Rob Dyrdek, Paul Rodriuez Jr., Ryan Sheckler, Terry Kennedy, Ryan Dunn, Adam Wylie, Yancie Arias, C.C. Sheffield & More. Written by Nino Scalia & Rob Dyrdek, Produced by Rob Dyrdek and Directed By Chris Zamocianyk under Berkela Films.

The movie is about Derrick Cabrera, like all skateboarders, dreams of being sponsored one day. He has all the talent in the world to make it happen but some major roadblocks to overcome before he can make the dream a reality. He is receiving pressure from all sides, his parents are stressing him because he is failing in school, his girlfriend thinks he is a loser, his best friend has become his rival because he is better than him. Things come to a head after Derrick gets arrested and a fight ensues with his father resulting in him running away from home. He does the only thing he knows how to do and opts to follow his dream to the Tampa Am contest, one of the only ways an unknown skater can get noticed.
