"Nuyo-realism" from the streets of Manhattan's Lower East Side, Crosswalk is a locative portrait in sound and image, shot at the intersection of home movie and cinema verite. Participation and observation take place on consecutive Good Fridays, highlighting the hybrid urban collage of peoples, cultures, and performances in daily life.

The cinema is an explosion of my love for reality. -Pier Paolo Pasolini

Some people turn around and see a door closing behind them, while others see 20 centuries. -Roberto Rossellini
