Roof Culture Asia (2017)
Team Storror showcase Parkour on a stage never before seen - the rooftops of Asian megacities. The film follows team Storror on their exploration into what drives them to push the sport to such extremes, and the battles that face them when trying to shoot a feature film totally guerilla. RCA delves into the mental and physical preparation Parkour athletes have to undertake to make impossible 'leaps of faith', possible.

You won't be disappointed!
The performances transcend the film's tropes, grounding it in characters that feel more complete than this subgenre often produces.
It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.
Coming into this movie I didn't have any high expectations, I watched this with a friend who's really into the whole parkour thing. But throughout the movie I found myself captured with the narration and feel of it all. We are presented with professional parkour team Storror and their adventures as they embark on a journey throughout Asia to find, so called, parkour locations. In the movie we get insight in these daredevils minds but also get to take part of the uncertainties and the overcoming of them. We follow the group through many different locations, and your ears and eyes are treated with amazing sound and filming. On a very limited budget I would say this is one of the most impressive works there is. I strongly recommend you watch this, to get a more detailed description of just what it means to be in a movement such as Roof Culture, and perhaps also to be inspired, because I sure was.
