Why are people making things look new in a dank, dark and decripate surronding ? Because somebody else did it. Graffiti V is cool because people give accounts of situations gone horribly bad. You can feel the feeling of something not right in the surrondings. This is more dark cinema from the recordings of questionable content. This is the product of environment and what actually went down for these people. I never knew what went down over there but this the footage.

Graffiti Verite showcases the graf movement in Los Angeles and the surrounding areas. This video is A good first step as A introduction but Graffiti Verite 2 should also be purchased to complete the story. A must for any video collection!
