Up There - the origin of outdoor advertising

An amazing doco about the craft of large scale hand painted advertising. A concept by Mother New York for Stella Artois, the film tells the story of these painters and their quest to keep their art alive.

"Capturing a trade that is equal parts artistic precision and and grueling labor, the film presents a painting tradition pre-dating modern advertising. A craft that today finds itself dangling precariously on the brink of extinction"
