The award-winning feature-length documentary STREET HEROINES, directed by Valiant Pictures director and producer Alexandra Henry and distributed by Buffalo8 will be available on demand to rent or buy on Amazon across North America this Friday. With authentic vérité storytelling woven between an interview-driven narrative, STREET HEROINES juxtaposes the personal experiences of three emerging Latina artists from New York City, Mexico City, and São Paulo as they navigate a male-dominated subculture to establish artistic identities within chaotic urban landscapes. Among its other nods, the film most recently acquired the Portland Film Festival’s Best Documentary Jury Award.

Synopsis: Punctuated by historical anecdotes from pioneering artists Lady Pink, Claw Money, Nina Pandolfo, Swoon, Lady Aiko, iconic graffiti photographer Martha Cooper, and others, STREET HEROINES is the first-of-its-kind documentary to capture the collective outcry of female street artists from around the world, shining a light on their mission for creative expression and their endeavours overcome sexism through art.
