NEW YORK SONG SERIES


Famed poet Frank O'Hara penned the classic poem, "Song - Is it dirty." Evocative of an ever changing cityscape, I interpreted the poem in 6 films. Each episode reflected a different aspect of Manhattan - the West Village, Times Square, the Lower East Side, Lincoln Center, Harlem, and transportation.
