He Spends Hours Every Day In An Apartment Elevator, And People Slowly Open Up To Him

January 23, 2017

For ten hours each day filmmaker Marc Issacs stands in the lift of a typical London tower block with his camera, filming those that come and go during the day. At first he is greeted with indifference or just plain ignored by all except a man who is rather jolly after a few drinks. However as he starts to become more of a fixture in the lifts, his blunt questions start to draw information out and gain the trust of some of the residents.

Issacs has taken what could have been intrusive and exploitative and turned it into something that is touching, honest and surprisingly intimate.
