Bomb Itis an international graffiti and street art documentary which premiered at the 2007 Tribeca Film Festival. Filmed on 5 continents and featuring cities such as Cape Town, London, Paris, Amsterdam and Sao Paulo, the documentary explores the interplay between worldwide graffiti movements, the global proliferation of "Quality of Life" laws, and the fight for control over public space. Through interviews and guerilla footage of graffiti writers in action, the film documents the public art movement from its origins in prehistoric cave paintings thru its notorious explosion in New York City during the 70′s and 80′s to the global movement that it has become.
