Our heroes are a motley crew of Salvadorean high-schoolers from the inner city of LA, who carry no guns, brandish no knives. Their ambitions are reasonable ones: (a) to play their Latino-flavored punk rock, influenced by the Ramones, and (b)to find more and more challenging spots from which to leap on their skateboards. This search for a skateboard Zion becomes the central story, as our seven home-boy lads dare, this time, to venture far past their insular neighborhood, their quest becomes a mock heroic one (city busses instead of steeds!), a mini-Lord of the Rings, with formidable enemies and fair maidens along the way. One alien neighborhood melts into another, leading to the far far country which is Beverly Hills High, site of the near-mythic Nine Steps. The ultimate skateboard challenge!
