New York, a city overflowing with activity and marked by the hustle and bustle of a population that is undaunted and unstoppable in its forward moving motion, presented a staggering picture in the year 2020. As the world came to a stock-still, so did the city, bidding goodbye to the sounds and the movement that were once so inherently characteristic of it.
The short video weaves together a set of images to depict the same reality for the viewer. While the subway remains empty, the roads despondent, we are left with a reminder of the might of an invisible virus that clutched the world tightly within its grasp.
The narrative does not opine or offer its own views on the situation. It simply shows what is, by presenting different corners of New York, many easily recognisable as being synonymous with the city itself. The Time the City Slept, thus, remains direct and uncomplicated in its approach, serving as a visual encapsulation of a mini-universe that was changed beyond all recognition during the pandemic which confined the global population indoors.
