“The Fingerboarder” by Fabian Korbinian Wolf

The Swiss Emanuel Oberle lives a secluded life in a small mountain village in the Swiss Alps. There he creates handmade mini skateboards, so-called fingerboards. And ships them all over the world. This is his story.

FROM THE DIRECTOR

"It’s surreal meeting Emanuel Oberle from the first sight. You have to walk up a snowy mountain, packed with all your gear. It takes about an hour at least. Then you arrive in a secluded village, no one living there. The only house with light in its windows is Emanuels home. And then this extraordinary man opens his home and heart. It’s everything a filmmaker can dream of."

-Fabian Korbinian Wolf
