Skate Kitchen exists by chance. Writer/director Crystal Moselle overheard Nina Moran and Rachelle Vinberg (actual members of the Skate Kitchen collective and stars in the film) talking on a subway train in Brooklyn. Instantly intrigued by their conversation, Moselle asked if she could tag along to the skateboarding meet-up they were going to. Moran and Vinberg agreed, thus beginning the creative partnership that would yield one short film (That One Day), one feature film (Skate Kitchen), and a canceled-too-soon HBO series, Betty.
