A seven year project involving filming on NYC subway. Camera observes people and events unaware they are being filmed. Emotional, intimate and deeply human. All done by director Tom DiCillo. He shot, edited and mixed the film by himself with the aim of making a film without any financial or marketing restrictions.

Se toda a humanidade caminhasse diante de nossos olhos, iria parecer Down in Shadowland, uma descida ao universo subterrâneo do emblemático metrô da cidade de Nova York.
