The Screen Guide

This documentary is about an unlikely partnership between two mismatched visual artists; a 3 storey mural created in the dead of night using stolen paint and a borrowed cherry-picker; and an illegal artwork that became Newtown's unofficial symbol, standing at the gateway to Sydney's Inner West. King Street's Martin Luther King mural has endured for 20 years and, despite its origin as "grafitti", it has won a permanent place in the hearts of the locals who identify with its message of tolerance.
