Take Your Space (SCR/DIR Karolina Álvarez, CZECH REPUBLIC, 2023, 102 minutes. Documentary). The first feature-length documentary on Mexican graffiti and urban art was created independent and free in its expression over five years without financial support, based on coexistence of the Mexican community of Mexican urban artists extending to the other branches of hiphop and skateboarding, familiarizing us with the movements development from beginnings to the present with a focus on its essence of rebellion and resistance. It presents urban arts as a path of freedom and independence for the individual, facing down the capitalist system and its attempt to invade our lives and behaviour, and Mexican counterculture in high relief in relation to the resistance of native cultures.
