I Am Thalente: Up From Africa’s Streets

by The Editors on November 20, 2013

A new documentary I Am Thalente follows the unlikely journey of Thalente Biyela, a South African street kid and skateboarder whose formal education ended at 8. He’s been homeless since 11, and now, thanks to skateboarding, he finds himself rolling with some of the best skateboarders in the business and a U.S. Athlete Visa.

The producers of this film need a little help to get it completed so they’ve turned to crowd funding site Seed & Spark to get things rolling. Check out this trailer, then click the link and do what you can.
