A: (cont.) Geoff's flyer work really plays off that -- as does this project, which often feels like it exists somewhere between documentary and fiction. Also, in the everyday life of the city, people constantly move in and out of each other's lives, often in lyrical, bizarre, and fleeting ways. We think our film really captures some of these interactions.

Q: Have recent advances in technology changed the way you work?

A: Yes, shooting DV is so simple. You grab your camera and shoot what you see. It's so flexible and unobtrusive compared to film. You can get an intimacy with a documentary like this that you can't necessarily get with a clunky film camera. We love the look of film, but for a short, guerilla-style shoot like this, DV was our only feasible option.
