Another film built round personal identity. Chantal Akerman explores New York as a mythological city. Whilst in New York she receives a series of letters from her mother begging her to return to Europe. Her New York, a demonic monstrous animal set in cinematic counterpoint to emotional ties that want to define her.
The film was shown at the Tate Modernin July 2010:
