Stefan Schaefer, Director
As part of THE GREEN, Sundance Channel presents a series of documentary films focusing on timely and pressing environmental issues of the day.
New York City prides itself as the world's most vibrant and dynamic metropolis. Unfortunately, it is also plagued by gridlock, noise, exhaust-filled air and a transit system that favors cars and trucks. Filmmaker Stefan Schaefer examines the city's past to reveal how this came to pass. CONTESTED STREETS offers contrasting lessons from three European cities - Paris, London and Copenhagen - which successfully introduced alternatives to limit automobile congestion, promote public transportation and facilitate walking and bicycle use.
