This Shorts Block contains 4 films from the SVA SocDoc program: "Woodcarver: Deborah Mills", "A Little Mess", "In the Right Frame of Mind", and "Night Cleaners".
After sunset familiar New York spaces turn into something else entirely; shadowy worlds where only the thoughts of the night cleaners can be heard.
Night Cleaners is a documentary about the people who clean up after us while we sleep. It explores the relationship between spaces and the cleaners who go through them at night while shining a light on people who are rarely noticed. The stories of the cleaners have similarities - most are immigrants and all have a special connection to the space they clean. Night Cleaners peaks behind the scenes lets us witness the extraordinary in the ordinary.
