Simpl

The film portrays the artistic lives of four graffiti artists – their creative process, assumptions about the society and how they define their own position within it. Zipo is an artist who works on controlled surfaces, e.g. trains. Simpl draws graffiti on the roofs in order to avoid communication with passers-by. Nebitno writes messages, short sentences and phrases that can take on completely new meanings in the context of the town and passers-by. Mane Mei is halfway between being legal and illegal. His endeavours could fit the term street art. He is more open and keen to be recognized. The film is to a larger extent a portrait of invented tags than it is of persons that created and breathed life into them.
