This short by Donna Deitch examines the painting of the Great Wall of Los Angeles, a cultural landmark and the longest mural in the world at 2,754 feet. It is located in the San Fernando Valley and was produced under the direction of Professor Judith Baca, co-founder of the Social Public Art and Resource Center (SPARC), along with Deitch and Christina Schlesinger. Justin Favela's exhibition at CAM, Ruta Madre, references portions of The Great Wall of Los Angeles.
