Shot on 16mm film, NYC WEIGHTS AND MEASURES opens with footage from the 1998 ticker-tape parade held along lower Broadway's "Canyon of Heroes" for astronaut John Glenn upon his return to Earth from his mission on the DISCOVERY space shuttle. Like a floating, drifting piece of ticker tape, the film then makes its way across boroughs and time to explore New York City's many moods, from loud and relentless to grave and dreamy.
