Inside the 'Mall of Culture'

2015 · 8 min · ★ 10.0 · Documentary

The Bronx is legendary as the birthplace of hip hop, break dancing, and graffiti—or as Butch Da Barber calls it: 'A Mall of Culture.' In this intimate documentary, we follow the young barber who was born, raised, and still works in the heart of the borough. His shop is more than a place for a haircut; it’s a cultural crossroads where the soul of the Bronx is preserved and passed on. A raw and authentic look at artistry, community, and the pulse of New York City.
