This short film explores memory and transformation by cataloging landmarks that aren’t even a decade old: 1 World Trade Center, the 59th Street Apple Store, the new Beatrice Inn and spiffed-up SoHo. The narration, a meditation on the life of the city in Melville- and Whitman-inspired prose, glides above the 16 millimeter film in the early morning hours of a Sunday in New York City.

Blank City est le récit de la vie d’un groupe disparate de réalisateurs rebelles, dans un New York au bord de la faillite, à la croisée des chemins. De la fin des années 1970 au milieu des années 1980, alors que la ville n’était qu’un terrain vague de locations et de drogues douteuses, ces réalisateurs ont façonné des œuvres osées, ayant eu une profonde influence sur le développement du cinéma indépendant tel qu’on le connaît aujourd’hui.
