Greenwich Entertainment has released a trailer for an upcoming documentary titled All the Streets Are Silent, from filmmaker Jeremy Elkin. The full title for the film is All the Streets Are Silent: The Convergence of Hip Hop and Skateboarding (1987-1997).

It’s explained, "In the late 80s and early 90s, the streets of downtown Manhattan were the site of a collision between two vibrant subcultures: skateboarding and hip hop. Narrated by Zoo York co-founder Eli Gesner with an original score by legendary hip-hop producer Large Professor (A Tribe Called Quest), All the Streets Are Silent brings to life the magic of the time period and the convergence that created a style and visual language that would have an outsized and enduring cultural effect."

In the film, “The streets of NYCC might be temporarily silent, but in downtown Manhattan in the early 90's, they were the site of a dynamic collision between two vibrant subcultures: skateboarding and hip hop. Jeremy Elkin's documentary, All The Streets Are Silent, narrated by Eli Morgan Gesner, brings to life the magic of this time period and the convergence that created an urban style and visual language that would have an outsized and lasting cultural effect. If Paris Is Burning and KIDS had a baby, you’d have this documentary love letter to New York—examining race, society, fashion and street culture—and full of archival footage featuring legendary characters from the downtown scene.”

All the Streets Are Silent looks like a great and interesting doc. The movie will be released in select US theaters on July 23rd, 2021.
