Life of a Blader

Video
2019
A mockumentary following Chester Peters (Jonas Anttila), a young 20-something struggling with the recent absence of his college-bound best friend, Nigel (Isaak Melnichuk). For years the two have used their rollerblading abilities to establish a small neighborhood flyer delivery business, but with Nigel gone, the winter weather arriving, and the recent appearance of a cyclist looking to ease into the world of flyer delivery, Chester is forced to not only maintain his business alone, but also compete with an arguably more efficient delivery service.
