VIGILANTE VIGILANTE


"Vigilante Vigilante: The Battle for Expression" Official Trailer from max good on Vimeo.





A feature documentary about anti-graffiti vigilantes and the cultural significance of graffiti and street art. Premieres August 12th at the Roxie Theater in San Francisco. Hopefully we can get this to Nuart too, looks like an interesting take on the theme.

A new breed of crime-fighter now stalks the urban landscape: the anti-graffiti vigilante.
These dedicated blight warriors stop at nothing to rid their neighborhoods and cities of street art, stickers, tags, and posters.

Yet several of these vigilantes have become the very menace they set out to eliminate. In their relentless attempt to stamp out graffiti, they have turned to illegally and destructively painting other people’s property.

VIGILANTE VIGILANTE is the story of two filmmakers who set out to expose these mysterious characters and discover a battle of expression that stretches from the streets to academia.
