This spectacular travel adventure, faithfully photographed in realistic black and white film at considerable risk from speeding freight trains and in secret hobo jungles, in the dogged pursuit of the impossibly convoluted and heretofore untold story of the century-old folkloric practice known as hobo and railworker graffiti, and chronicling the absurd quest for the true identity of railroading’s most legendary artist, will likely amuse and confound you in its sincere attempt to understand and preserve this mysterious artform.

filmmaker bill daniel will be at the screening for a q&a

“I was drawn to the subject by the universal graffiti impulse and the classic corny notion of freight train blues escape.” – B
