Why do they write on walls?

Trying to understand the underbelly of the phenomenon of graffiti and street art in Romania, a corporatist ends up discovering himself. Started as an objective analysis of a counterculture, the documentary turns into an intimate coming-of-age story of a 35-year-old man, swallowed by the different universe he discovers. The film explores all the dimensions and specificities of this community โ€“ from interventions on subways, trams, trains, to clandestine actions on the streets, in public spaces or in abandoned places.
