A US indie about graffit𒁃i taggers walking’n’talking in NYC sounds liꦑke a recipe for post-mumblecore hipster chic, but Adam Leon’s fleet and funky freewheeler betrays no contrivance.

Ty Hickson and Tashiana Washington brim with conviction as cash-strapped mates struggling to raise $500 so they can tag Shea Stadium’s home-run apple (a NY landmark that 🍨pops up during Mets games).

Despite adding petty theft and class conflict to the mix, Leon never forces the drama’s hand. Instead, he favours an on-the-fly empathy for the underdog that’s seductive without being sentimental and charming without being cheap, right up to a well-earned closing grace 🍨note that’ll make you grin for days.
