Spirits of New York

A trip to New York through 25 legendary figures.

Houdini and his escapism shows in Coney Island, Billie Holiday in search of his luck in the nightclubs of Harlem, Lorca as a witness to the panic that looms over Wall Street in October 29, Frida Kahlo leaning on the railing of the Brooklyn Bridge... From the end of the 19th century until today, New York has been exerting a powerful attraction on the world of literature, philosophy, politics, cinema, music and the arts in general.
