A mini documentary by Markus Bengtsson for CHPO.
Free Movement, an NGO focusing on fostering solidarity through skate classes in Athens. And two remarkable women, both named Denia, who nurture wellbeing and equality, on and off the board. With their mobile skatepark and weekly sessions across Greece’s capital, they create spaces of safety, inclusivity, and empowerment for youth from all walks of life, including refugees. It is their story that is told through this documentary.
This film stands as a testament to the power of grassroots social work and offers a roadmap for navigating a fractured system with grace and resilience. It celebrates solidarity in action and extends an open invitation to anyone bold enough to step onto a skateboard – assuring them that this little toy brings not just acceptance but the warm embrace of belonging.
