A common refrain I hear from my peers often is that we're all "becoming more and more like our parents". Bing Liu demands us to find out.
Desperate and sudden yearnings toward new ways of living life seem to proliferate by the day. Comedians like Ali Wong have detailed this as a need to desperately "turn this ship around", through self-help books or otherwise. Although this feeling has up until this point been described in detail by those of a particular "professional-managerial class", its presence is much more striking amongst those of us who are not.
We are realizing that our life path is taking a marked, almost nostalgic return to the way our parents behaved when they were growing up. It is this disparate junction between child and adult, dependent and independent, fledgling and fortified that interests me. What does it mean to be free from your parents?
What does it mean to reckon with who you have become? Bing stated in a June interview with Deadline that he directed the film in part so that its message would resonate with younger viewers globally. The film centers itself on three young men growing up in an impoverished Rockford, Illinois, presenting their trials and tribulations from when they were children to present-day under the auspice of skateboard footage.
Instead, the radical empathy that characterizes Minding the Gap is through its presentation of gentler and arguably more universal themes. The start of the film states outright that skating is not merely a "silly hobby" but an outlet for youth who have lost trust in their own families and even in themselves. The ability of the individuals portrayed to survive the arduous trials of their hopes and fears and who they have decided to become are all guided along by this hobby that they simply love to do.
