Na zijn ontdekking wordt de jonge graffiti-kunstenaar Jean Michel Basquiat direct bestempeld als een van de grootste talenten van de New Yorkse kunst-scene. Hij treedt toe tot de kleine kring van vertrouwelingen rond Andy Warhol. Zijn schilderijen vinden grif aftrek bij belangrijke musea en kunstverzamelaars, en de media storten zich vol overgave op de eerste zwarte kunstenaar die succes heeft in de voornamelijk door blanken gedomineerde kunstwereld. Maar terwijl zijn ster blijft rijzen, buigt Basquiat steeds verder onder het juk van zijn eigen succes. Zijn leven krijgt een fatale wending als hij zijn uitvlucht zoekt in het gebruik van alcohol en drugs. (RCV Film Distribution)
