Australian filmmaker Selina Miles brings her visionary outlook on the legend that is Martha Cooper while following her around Berlin, New York and Baltimore. This film has already taken out the Sydney Film Festival Documentary Audience Award and is sure to be a fan favourite with Melbourne as well.

If you love graffiti, street art or photography then you will already be familiar with the name Martha Cooper and know this isn’t one to be missed.

“Photographer Martha Cooper is considered one of the most important urban photographers of the past fifty years. Her iconic images of graffiti and subway art in the 1970s captured long since destroyed artworks and helped launch the modern street art and hip hop movements.”
