RUNNERS UP

Shadowman, directed and written by Oren Jacoby. (USA) - World Premiere. In the early 1980s, Richard Hambleton was New York Citys precursor to Banksy, a rogue street artist whose silhouette paintings haunted the sides of Manhattan buildings.

Shadowman doubles as both a time capsule of a forgotten New York City era, and a redemption story.
