Rent The Nasty Terrible T-Kid 170 (2014)

Synopsis:

The Nasty Terrible T-KID 170: Julius Cavero, chronicles his coming of age as a poor Latino from the Bronx in the 70's where a young boy named Julius would be forced into New York gang life. His canvas of choice was subway cars. He would channel the anger & pain from being disregarded by society and even his family, spraying it out onto the subway cars for the public to see. Until now the story of T-Kid 170 has been kept within the sub culture of graffiti. This film uses nearly 30 years' worth of archived footage & never before seen home movies. The viewer is given a rare glimpse into the world of subway graffiti. You follow T-Kid into train yards all over the world, through his trials & tribulations from arrest, addiction, violence, love, and triumphs. Follow the story of one man's rise to becoming a legend and witness the story of someone who came from the bottom to write his name on the top. T-kid is one of few, who have left their mark on the history of graffiti, coming up in the golden age of Hip Hop and becoming one of the leading figures in the emerging New York graffiti scene. His style, 3-D letters and unique characters have been a source of inspiration for many other writers from all four corners of the globe.
