Following more than three years of exploratory research, photography, and writing about the singular view from his Brooklyn studio, Groeneboer took up a daily practice over the subsequent two and a half years of filming the panorama through his window. This process entailed a durational commitment to witnessing the presence of architectures and systems that are often hidden from everyday life. The resulting film is a visual meditation that follows the cyclical rhythms of weather and industry to offer a portrait of New York City in relation to the forces that shape it, including late-stage capitalism and environmental crises.

Reviews
Sorry, this movie sucks
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.
It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.
