New York is more than a city - it’s a way of life. This collection brings together feature films and documentaries that showcase the Big Apple in all its facets: as a place of longing, the setting for great stories, and a stage for art, music, nightlife, and social change. From the streets of Manhattan to Greenwich Village and on to Astoria, from stories of immigration and subcultures to legendary venues like Studio 54, a multifaceted portrait emerges of a metropolis that has inspired and shaped filmmakers for decades.
Films like “Walk, Don’t Walk” and “Everything’s Jake” capture New York before 9/11 and reveal just how deeply the city has been shaped by that turning point ever since.
