A Child's Introduction to the Wonders of Space
Synopsis
"A young woman settles into her new life in New York City, overwhelmed by the crowds and wary of human contact. Shot in moody black and white collaging a visual language reminiscent of film noir, art horror, and street photography of the 60's and 70's, Rachel Reichman’s short film exemplifies the return to narrative in independent filmmaking following the structuralist experiments of the 1970s." - MoMA
