New York Documentaries

New York has always been the jumping-off point for the American dream, but for some, it has become a nightmare. Even though it’s one of the wealthiest cities in the world, the immense homelessness problem is highlighted in Homeless in NY. The failure of police officers in the US to live up to their pledge to protect and serve is investigated in the documentary Once Upon a Crime. The short-term impact of the Occupy Wall Street movement had greater implications, as we discover in the film American Spring.
