Made during an International Digital Filmmaker Residency at Squeaky Wheel Film and Media Arts Center, Buffalo, NY
A look at the past and present of one of Buffalo’s oldest hotels and the many stories contained within its weathered walls. Lenox is a journey through a faded 1920s Art Deco interior, versus shabby retro Americana.
“An intriguing well-paced piece confident enough to allow the hotel to speak for itself.”
