Set in South Central L.A., this film from writer/director Larry Clark (Kids, Bully) has a group of mostly Hispanic teenagers who decide not to conform to the typical hip-hop culture of their neighborhood. Instead, they skateboard, listen to punk rock and wear their clothes tight.

When the kids find themselves the victims of harassment for their odd behavior in their own neighborhood, they decide to take the bus over to Beverly Hills, Santa Monica and Hollywood. There, they skate to their heart's content, catching the attention of the local rich girls. Naturally, this leads to trouble with parents, police and boyfriends.

Wassup Rockers has played the festival circuit, including the Toronto International Film Festival, and will receive a limited theatrical release from Palm Pictures/First Look. (Kim Hollis/BOP)
