The film focuses on the lives of three lonely strangers intersect while commuting on New York's 1 and 9 subway lines. What await them ahead, let's see the film to discover by yourself.
An all-too-familiar wallow in urban woe and artfully photographed isolation.

A delicate piece with good performances and an intriguing enough setup, the drama ultimately doesn't go anywhere definite or distinctive enough to leave a lasting impression.
Throw a rock into any year's Sundance guide and you're guaranteed to hit at least two or three multi-pronged grave and oh-so-earnest weep-dramas like this one.
The film's most effective moments are its quietest.

Better directed than written, de Villa's meditation on loss, loneliness, and alientaion in urban New York is downbeat, slow, studied, and a bit pretentious, but it's nicely acted by the entire cast, particularly Victor Rasuk and Dominic Chianese.
