Katabasis

Drawing on the myth of katabasis — a descent into the underworld — this interactive documentary explores New York’s underground labyrinth, within the city’s unconscious layers. Katábasis gives voice to those who live in these spaces, work through their tunnels, or hide in their corners: buried in unexpected places, their stories collide and resonate, shaping a vital and complex territory. The experience shifts perspective, revealing the bowels of the metropolis at the heart of a polarized American society.
