Shooting Star(s): The Rise of Hip Hop Photographer Johnny Nunez (2009)
Overview
In this revealing biographical portrait, filmmakers Axel Ebermann and Daniel Frei document the rags-to-riches story of photographer Johnny Nunez, charting his rise from a humble boy in Brooklyn to an in-demand presence on the hip-hop scene. No stranger to high-profile subjects, Nunez made a name for himself photographing wealthy A-list celebrities, but his glamorous lifestyle today belies the poverty and racism he had to overcome in his youth.
