On Friday March 13th, 2020, I filmed the subway on my commute to work... my last commute to work ever.

​

The next week, I began working from

home and 3 weeks later, I was laid off.

​

The tension that morning was unbearable. The usually

packed subway was completely empty. I wore my mask diligently after having recently returned from

Asia, but still received judgmental stares.

​

That night, in a panic, I sprayed cleaning fluid

on everything I owned, but ended up accidentally

bleaching my jacket in the process (Brooklyn chic?)

​

I couldn't distract myself from the news. Feigned smiles masking internal panic mixed with shameless hysteria.

It felt like everyone was saying something different, 

and I knew that was because no one actually

knew what the hell was going on. 

​

Using audio from various talk shows, news

reports, and interviews, this film was created

that same day as a way to process the panic

and confusion of that time in history.
