Approaching Union Square

Marc Meyers, Director

2006 | 81 |

The lives of eleven passengers on a New York City bus are revealed in a series of individual monologue vignettes in this debut feature from Marc Meyers. While largely anonymous to each other, the travelers - including a tourist, an immigrant, a sex addict and a psychic - harbor secrets, longings, connections and intriguing inner lives otherwise invisible. Adapted from Meyers's original stage play Love & Sex: Tales From the Trenches. "A startlingly accomplished debut ... smart, confessional, rueful, funny and sad" - Montreal Gazette.
