Pleasures of Urban Decay   

An offbeat film about MacArthur Award recipient Ben Katchor, the creator of the great comic strip Julius Knipl, Real Estate Photographer. Katchor’s Yiddish-inflected voice guides us through a vast and shadowy landscape of old skyscrapers, neglected warehouses and all-night cafeterias, peering behind the city’s facades and through its cracks, turning New York’s everyday trappings into urban poetry.
