Nine Letters is A Film That Isolates The Feelings Of Moving To New York City
by Stephi Wild - Feb 6, 2018


Cristina Muller's film Nine Letters uses a minimalist documentary style to emphasize the conflicting feelings of moving to a cosmopolitan new city. Muller uses imagery and sound from around New York City to enhance the sentiments of nine letters that are read as voiceover. The letters span from 1930 to 2016 and show the perspective of a diverse group of immigrants. The film emphasizes the repetitive nature of the city with long shots of people exiting subway cars and walking across bridges and streets. There also exist moments of unique pause like sitting at a cold window, on a winter evening, as the sun sets. The observations made by the writers of each letter are able to breathe over the imagery and sounds Muller layers, giving the viewer time to absorb each letter. Nine Letters expresses how moving to New York City comes with an intensity and lightness that can be reflected back into the constant state of being alive.
