Synopsis

Set in a fictional German city, Wholetrain explores the complicated world of Keep Steel Burning (KSB), a graffiti crew struggling to make their mark on the world while overcoming the limitations of their lower middle class urban lives. While each character navigates relationships with the others, family, and the police, a rival crew threatens their status. This fast-paced film, full of striking graffiti art and an original soundtrack featuring KRS-One and Freddie Foxxx, shows how these young men find their way through, thanks to the transformative power of their art and friendship.
