Chicago Graffiti (full documentary)

Описание: In Chicago’s underground graffiti scene, artists risk arrest, injury, and erasure to leave their names behind before the city wipes them away. Moving through freight yards, abandoned buildings, and hidden tunnels, writers paint against the clock—driven by obsession, adrenaline, and the need to be seen.

From beginners sketching in small apartments to veterans balancing day jobs and dangerous nights, the film reveals graffiti as more than rebellion: it’s identity, therapy, and survival. As Chicago spends millions buffing graffiti and criminalizing its creators, a resilient community continues to grow—sharing techniques, organizing massive wall projects, and pushing new styles and political messages.

"Chicago Graffiti" is a raw portrait of artists who create knowing their work may vanish tomorrow—and paint anyway.
