Mercurial New York with Rose Salane (Artist), Sophie Cavoulacos (Moderator)

Mercurial New York is a psychological symphony of the city in motion. The camera traverses and collapses the scales of infra-structure, alighting on subjectivity. We overhear conversations both mundane and political, articulating people’s memories, concerns and hopes across the languages that comprise New York.
