Ondřej Skala

První dlouhometrážní dokument o mexickém graffiti, street art a hiphopu je nezávislý projekt, který vnikal čtyři roky bez finanční podpory institucí za účasti nejlepších umělců mexické komunity, proto je zcela svobodný ve svém vyjádření. Seznamuje nás s vývojem tohoto směru od jeho počátků do současnosti a představuje ho jako cestu svobody a nezávislosti jedince, který čelí globální moci kapitalistického systému a jeho snaze ovládat naše životy a chování. Film zároveň poukazuje na charakteristický rys mexické kontrakultury ve vztahu ke společensko-politickému vzdoru původních obyvatel.

Česká režisérka Karolína Alvarez se věnuje nezávislému uměleckému dokumentu. Diplomovala v oboru humantních věd FHS UK a konceptuálního umění na VŠUP. Po pádu komunistického systému ve východní Evropě cestovala do zemí, kde je dosud živá původní kultura (Irsko, Sibiř, Himaláje, Amazonie, Mexiko). Od roku 2018 zaměřila pozornost na městskou kulturu. Realizuje multidisciplinární projekty ve snaze znovu sjednotit čtyři odvětví hiphopu a připomenout jeho původní poslaní. Zpívá a hraje na kytaru, vede sufijské taneční workshopy, jezdí na snowboardu a běhá maraton v Měděných kaňonech.

Ondřej Skala je český umělec, který se věnuje především výtvarnému umění, videoartu, umění ve veřejném prostoru a performancím. Vystudoval Vysokou školu uměleckoprůmyslovou v Praze. Spolu se svým bratrem Petrem Skalou se podílí na breakcore-ambientním hudebním projektu Ježíš táhne na Berlín.
