Alien at the Movies

All the Streets Are Silent

In New York during the late 80’s to early 90’s, the skateboarding & hip hop subcultures thrive & merge together. The music night scene expands with Club MARS. An underground hip hop radio station is created & hosted by DJ Stretch Armstrong & Bobbito. Fashion labels like Phat Farm, Zoo York, & Supreme take off. Films like “Kids” & the “Mixtape” video are produced. Old footage & pictures as well as interviews are used to illustrate the times for this documentary. See some music artists perform at the beginning of their careers. It’s an interesting look at the union of 2 unique & seemingly very different cultures.
