Return to Skid Row

Return to Skid Row

Return to Skid Row walks along the pavement of bygone downtown Minneapolis, preserved in rare footage, memory and 21st Century reflection. A unique 16mm film brings back to life Minneapolis’ Gateway district in its’ twilight years. Guided by the first-person account from the 'King of Skid Row’, the film is an unnerving and illuminating gaze on midcentury poverty, people, place, and the past.
