Boom for Real: The Late Teenage Years of Jean-Michel Basquiat (2017)

The history of the artist Jean-Michel Basquiat from the first steps in art to the sale of his first photographs.

The portrait of the artist in his youth is a contagious genre of documentary, especially when the place of training is New York from the early 70s and 80s on the brink of a catastrophe. In a devastated town where empty houses were thrown into the fire to raise insurance money, a Haitian guy with a free coat and the head of his shave looked like another artist with half witchcraft, with which nothing would happen good.
