Over his 50-year career, Frederick Wiseman (National Gallery) has tackled great social and cultural institutions, and here offers a “transporting love letter to New York and its multi-everything glory” (New York Times). With immigrants from Pakistan to Peru speaking 167 languages and shopkeepers mobilizing against the Williamsburg-ization of their hood, this singular community revels in still being affordable, 20 minutes from “the city,” and resolutely unhip.
