SYNOPSIS:
Two local street artists try to give the city of Heerlen a new image, but their city seems to be literally colored by famous international artists. Where Dave de Leeuw and DazeTwo intertwine the past and present of the city in their murals, the municipality mainly sees the benefit in putting Heerlen on the international map as ‘Street Art Capital’ and revive the city from its decayed past. To what extent can the image of a city transform from within or are outside influences necessary? And are the murals really a solution to the city’s image problem?
