Synopsis:

Brooklyn: Among the Ruins introduces audiences to Brooklyn born and bred Paul Kronenberg. Paul is a 60 year-old subway buff who built a life-size replica of a 1930s motorman's subway cab in his tiny bedroom in Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn.
Paul, a former math tutor and delivery truck driver, describes himself as a classic underachiever. But Paul has his own worldview that is reflected in his apartment and in his relationship with the city.
Paul takes the film maker on a journey around New York City to note down, as Franz Kafka once wrote, "what he sees among the ruins."(more)
