I really enjoyed this movie and highly recommend it. It turned out to be much more powerful than I had originally thought and I was moved by the common thread giving each of them hope in their skating community.
Wow. Very nicely crafted documentary about how, in a war torn country, life can prevail through the simplest of sports/hobbies.
A wonderful documentary in every sense of the word. It is so well made!
Documentaries like this connect you to people and life.....Really loved it and can say sports are really the best way to bridge social gaps and remove social indifference....
7 Hills is a special kind of documentary with its picturesque setting, skateboarding, and kids coming together. Amman, Jordan, works as the backdrop, and its diversity and excitement come through with every shot.
So much more than a skateboarding movie, this doc shines a light on the sport, it's culture, and the culture of Amman, Jordan. It makes for an eye-opener into the social/political/cultural challenges in the middle east and how skateboarding can be used to transcend struggles and boundaries.
I especially appreciate documentary's that take me into a new world, where I learn about new places and people. That is exactly what this film does.
7 Hills was a very unexpectedly enjoyable doco. What I mean by that is that I never thought of kids from those communities doing things like skateboarding, I mean, why wouldn't they?
Just watch it. Especially if you are a skater, internationally minded, philanthropic, want to see goodness.
