    William Higbie / SFUFF 2018, Documentary, Shorts / USA / 2018 / Documentary / 18 mins
    “Painting the Town” is a short-form documentary film that offers a view upon Detroit’s surging independent movement of street art and graffiti. This once renegade art form - often expressed in massive building-sized murals - depicts subjects, both abstract and whimsical, as well as deeply personal. How is this medium changing the face of Detroit, its popularity, and even its economy? But most of all, how can street art bring people together in ways that never been imagined a few short years ago?
