DESCRIPTION:\n	New York City isn’t the easiest place to live\, even in the 
 most gentle of times. And the last few years haven’t been gentle. But New 
 York has always been a town that attracts the tough and cultivates the dog
 ged\, and it will always be a place that reminds us that none of us can do
  it on our own. In celebration of the city’s collective perseverance\, Roo
 ftop Films has gathered a selection of short films that embody the collect
 ive fighting spirit of New York’s everyday heroes and showcases our commun
 al courage and camaraderie. We’ll witness a young woman wrestling an impos
 sibly stubborn mattress into a walk-up apartment\; one family adapting to 
 the unexpected darkness of a sudden blackout and another family maintainin
 g solidarity across great a great divide\; and people across the five boro
 ughs coming together to share food and comfort\, defiantly resisting the a
 lienating solitude of the pandemic. In times of crisis\, these New Yorkers
