Under the Glass Skylight is an intriguing documentary that captures the essence of a neighborhood's evolution through the eyes of artist Jeff Way and Carolyn Oberst. The film dives deep into their struggles, painting a vivid picture of Tribeca before it became the trendy locale we know today. The pacing feels almost like a slow burn, allowing viewers to absorb not just the history, but the emotional weight of their fight to remain in a place that felt like home. Practical effects are minimal, yet effective, emphasizing raw, real moments. The performances, though not traditional acting, carry a sincerity that draws you in. It’s not just about gentrification; it’s about community and identity, making it distinctively resonant.
