Directed by Tony Silver | 1983
The essential record of 1980s street art, this trailblazing documentary captures graffiti legends like DONDI, Seen, and one-armed writer Case as they turn New York City and its subway system into a sprawling, spray-painted wonderland—much to the chagrin of irascible Mayor Koch. Winner of the documentary Grand Prize at Sundance, Style Wars captures the break-dancing battles, seminal music, and propulsive energy of hip-hop culture before it went mainstream.
