"A Dada-esque movement that means little beyond its own self-perpetuation, but its genial, anarchic spirit is expertly captured in the brief movie."
- Darren D’Addario, Time Out New York
"legendary … a canonical study of Gen-X media manipulation. One of the keenest examinations of ‘90s underground culture"
- Ed Halter, The Village Voice
"Ms. Stickler’s video is one of the best documentations of this kind of activity I have ever seen...very funny and thought provoking."

Synopsis
The GIANT graffiti and sticker campaign began in 1989 as skateboarder and graphic designer Shepard Fairey's rebellion against corporate logo worship. A decade later there were over a million GIANT images in distribution around the world. The award-winning short film by Helen Stickler reveals the source of the enigmatic face and the ideas behind it, and demonstrates how a simple image of a dead wrestler became a global experiment in Phenomonology.
