LANDS CLOSE TO PATERSON

In New York to present her film Siberia, Joana Preiss documents the city through its pace and meetings. We are wrapped in a mysterious journey through her imagination, which is both breathtaking and hypnotic.

A beguiling cacophony of sirens, strange beeps, and even the sound of subway trains grinding on their rail tracks, Joana Preiss’ metropolitan snapshot hypnotically accentuates the rough edges of New York. The shaky, swoony camera movement seizes the delirious mania of the city that never sleeps.
