(Adam Leon/ 2012/ USA/ 81 mins/ Cert: 15)

Two determined teens from the Bronx, Malcolm and Sofia, are the ultimate graffiti-writers. Over the course of two whirlwind, sun-soaked summer days, they travel on an epic urban adventure when a rival gang buffs their latest masterpiece in this fun coming-of-age tale. Led by his two charismatic young lead actors, Adam Leon's Gimme the Loot is an almost compulsively endearing film that is a lovingly handmade affair, like the graffiti art it documents.
"Want a bracing alternative to the usual Hollywood swill? Try Gimme the Loot, a fresh, funky jolt of filmmaking joy." - Rolling Stone

"It's a triumph of the underdog in more ways than one." - Time Out

"Tashiana Washington and Ty Hickson are terrific in the main roles. So is Zoë Lescaze as Ginnie, a spoiled white kid who teaches the taggers a thing or two about drift and being dissolute." - Wall Street Journal
