BRAVE NEW YORK
2004 (55:42)

Brave New York
celebrates the east village in all its fabulous diversity. Shot from 1992-2004, it chronicles the gentrification of the "hood," and relates it to a continuing pattern of colonialism. The movie's main voices are those of the artists, street people, Indians, and activists whose commentaries on the dominant culture give pause amidst the speedy approach of a "brave new world."

DVD now on sale from Brink Media.

Directed and produced by Richard Sandler.
Feature edited by Dan Brown.
