Nearly four decades after his untimely death at age 27, Jean-Michel Basquiat is a much-celebrated artist. His work has been exhibited extensively across the world and appears on everything from murals to clothing to tattoos.
In this new film, Basquiat's sisters, Lisane and Jeanine draw on personal archives, never-before-seen works, and many voices of those who knew him best. They share untold memories to lead an intimate and comprehensive portrait of their brother.
