TEDE. Forever Rap is an uncompromising portrait of Jacek “Tede” Graniecki – one of the most influential and controversial artists in the history of Polish rap. The film is driven by never-before-seen private archives from 1993–2002 – a priceless record of the years when hip-hop in Poland was just being born, with Tede and his crew at the very heart of that revolution. Twenty-two years after his first visit, the artist returns to the streets of New York on a sentimental journey, asking how he, Polish rap, Poland and America have changed. Appearing alongside Tede are Eldo, O.S.T.R., Wilku, Vienio and CNE. It is the story of a generation that came of age at the turn of the millennium, with hip-hop as the soundtrack of great social change. The filmmakers kept full independence – Tede will see the film for the first time at its premiere.
