Nitehawk presents a special screening of the documentary on graffiti, politics and lifestyle, STYLE WARS 2.

Q&A with Co-Producer of Style Wars, Henry Chalfant, Artist from Style Wars 2, Devi, and Co-Director of Style Wars 2, Amos.

Style Wars is a legendary documentary, filmed in 1983, which helped the graffiti movement from New York to spread around the world. 30 years later, Veli and Amos, two Style Wars fans from Europe, trip through today’s graffiti and street art scene. The journey takes them from Europe to New York and ends in the Middle East. Style Wars 2 features encounters with graffiti artists and presents different artistic views. Along the way, Veli and Amos also happen to attend boxing fights in New York and visit hair dressers in the West Bank. Even though the movie’s main focus is on graffiti, it also raises topics like art, politics and lifestyle.
