A journey back into the shadowy heart of early 70’s New York City, pure 70’s madness from the depths of Fear City. Through a hallucinatory blend of raw archival footage and vibrant animation, the viewer is pulled into a kaleidoscopic descent where gangs rule the night, neon signs flicker on the streets, and reality blurs into a fever dream of subway writing, music, and surreal visions.
