    • Synopsis
    • A galvanizing sensory trip into the lives of zealous dancers and artists, with a restless appetite for fame, all drawn like moths to its flame. At a time when the police’s malicious tactics clashes head on with Demetal’s unorthodox views and Natasha’s and Maco’s nihilistic approach, a struggle about expression ensues. In a counter-culture fitted to shock and offend the establishment, “La 42” is an unrepentant window into a place and time in the Dominican urban landscape that makes you glad to be alive—all on a 600-meter 42nd street.
