    • Synopsis
    • Following ten years of acclaim, DARK DAYS remains the most insightful, timely, and poignant examination of an undeniably fascinating community living on the fringe of mainstream society – a small population that has taken refuge in New York City’s high-speed Amtrak tunnels. Featuring a hypnotic soundtrack by legendary turntablist DJ Shadow and filmed by a crew mostly comprised of the tunnel-dwellers themselves, Singer’s documentary is by turns eye-opening, moving, and entertaining. DARK DAYS shatters the myths of homelessness while honestly and endearingly capturing an enclave thriving in the perpetual darkness of the underground.
