This week's synopsis music by Unheard Music Concepts.

We had an episode planned for this week that we decided is inappropriate in light of the murder of George Floyd and the justified pain and anger people are feeling right now around anti-Blackness. We will be up with an episode next Friday on a film made by a Black filmmaker. Stay tuned, Black lives matter.

This week, the wandering New York City based, Frances Ha. Don't run in the street if you don't wanna scrape your elbow y'all.
