For three men, a history of childhood trauma and love of skateboarding

In the documentary “Minding the Gap,” three young men bond over skateboarding. And they learn how to come to terms with their childhood traumas as they transition to adulthood. One of those men is Bing Liu, the film’s director. “Minding the Gap” is Liu’s first feature-length documentary. It’s earned more than two dozen award recognitions since it premiered earlier this year.
