D.I.Y. America is a great documentary series that focuses on skateboarding, punk, grafitti and hip-hop culture. Featuring interviews with Craig Stecyk, KR, Todd James, Os Gêmeos, Epso, Swoon, Tony Hawk and much more.
It was put together with footage that didn’t make the cut from the Beautiful Losers film. The above video is episode 9 “Graffiti Part One: Roots and Drive”.

Two documentary filmmakers set out to expose a prolific anti-graffiti vigilante vandal who spray-paints silver blobs over existing graffiti. Through trial and error, the filmmakers hone their amateur surveillance skills and eventually identify and confront their target. The film then ventures deeper into questions over the legitimacy and motivations of graffiti and anti-graffiti, with perspectives from both sides and examples of three other well-known anti-graffiti vigilantes across the US.
