Dark Days [DVD]

DARK DAYS a groundbreaking documentary from British director Marc Singer shows a way of life that is unimaginable to most people. The film which features a moving soundtrack from DJ Shadow focuses on a group of homeless people that live deep underground in an abandoned New York City railroad tunnel. During the daytime they scavenge for food on the streets of New York. At night they retreat to the tunnel where they have built homes out of scrap metal plastic and plywood. The residents have electricity furniture and working kitchens not to mention community comradery and the support of each other. Some of them have lived in the tunnel for 25 years.BRShot in vivid black and white capturing both the grit (chicken wire concrete walls ramshackle shelters) and the honesty (the residents have hit rock bottom and admit it) of the tunnel Singers film consists of candid conversations with tunnel dwellers who are intelligent funny optimistic and above all human. One man confesses that he once had a wife and a child and that he lost both to his drug addiction (crack cocaine) while one teenage boy living in the tunnel explains that he was abused by his family in Florida and simply ran away finding life in the tunnel more redeeming. In the films emotional understated conclusion Singer who actually resided in the tunnel while making DARK DAYS turns to New York Citys Coalition for the Homeless for help.
