When Infamous street artist Ron English’s image of Abraham Lincoln and Barack
Obama merged together gains national attention for being illegally pasted all over
Boston, he decides to gather a crew of artists and musicians and take off across
America, plastering the image wherever they can find an open wall. Along the
way they meet up with counter culture heroes such as Shepard Fairey, Morgan
Spurlock, and David Choe, and spread their subversive propaganda to America’s
heartland on a grassroots campaign to get Barack Obama elected. Abraham Obama
is a raw unfiltered look at the power of street art and offers a rare glimpse inside
the insane lives of some the most prolific artists in America today.
