WOW, thank you for all the love on our NUEVAYOL x LOS SURES post — so many of you saw the same echoes, textures, and neighborhood spirit across decades.

Today, we wanted to spotlight LOS SURES (1984), the film from the video, directed by Diego Echeverría and offer folks a chance to watch the whole thing!

If you haven’t seen it yet: you can stream LOS SURES for FREE through the UnionDocs Membership with a 7-day free trial.

The film is an intimate portrait of South Williamsburg during a time of massive change, capturing everyday life and struggle, joy, resilience, and the culture that shaped the neighborhood.

“Both an invaluable record of pre-gentrification Brooklyn and an ode to a community’s resilience.” -@bam_brooklyn

UnionDocs restored LOS SURES over a decade ago, and it became the foundation for our ongoing Living Los Sures project, work rooted in the same community we called home for 18 years.

🧱 💫 Past → Present → Future: Unearthing a Little Piece of Ridgewood History for Our Rebuild!

When we first landed on Onderdonk, we went digging through the NYC historic tax photo archive and stumbled onto an enchanting 1930s snapshot of our building, taken just 10 years after it was built. There it was — the original corner-cut entrance, a distinctive architectural flourish found across Ridgewood, documented thanks to the immense effort of the Works Progress Administration and stewarded by the incredible NYC Municipal Archives

Fast forward to the 1980’s tax photo and that beautiful entrance had been sealed over — a small loss in the long timeline of the neighborhood.

Now, in this rebuild, we’re bringing it back.

The restored corner entrance will soon welcome you directly into our new entry and restored storefront — a bright, communal space for gathering, making, sharing a toast or a drink, and seeing installed works from artists across our programs. It’s the heart we’ve always imagined for UNDO, and we cannot wait to open those doors very soon.

We’ll be sharing more transformation updates as we continue the project, but right now we’re reaching out for help.

To get over the finish line, we’ve created a 🎁 GIFT REGISTRY 🎁 — a collection of the everyday essentials that future visiting artists and residents will rely on.

Choose an item that speaks to you, or contribute any amount that feels right.

UnionDocs is thrilled to launch the next iteration of the 𝗔𝗨𝗗𝗜𝗢 & 𝗣𝗘𝗥𝗙𝗢𝗥𝗠𝗔𝗡𝗖𝗘 𝗟𝗔𝗕 — a 3-month exploratory program where a cohort of sound-based artists collaboratively develops an original collection of audio-first performance works for a live audience.

Expanding beyond the confines of your headphones, APL engages sound in shared physical space, inviting 12 artists working across sound design, oral history, music, audio documentary, field recording, theater, improv, experimental spatial audio, and more to collectively conceive, produce, and stage a slate of bold new pieces.

From September through December, participants will work together to create 6–8 sound-focused performances, guided by interdisciplinary director, the brilliant 𝗔𝗮𝗿𝗼𝗻 𝗘𝗱𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱𝘀 [ @aaronmedwards ] alongside a slate of visiting artists, technical mentorship, and a crew of fellow practitioners. The lab culminates in a series of live public performances in December.

Through weekly meetings, collaborative production teams, shared source material, and a rigorous staging process, APL offers space to experiment, rehearse, and build a collective audio-driven performance from the ground up.

If your practice engages sound, voice, performance, or listening, this lab could be for you!

The night begins with 𝘞𝘖𝘙𝘓𝘋 𝘌𝘕𝘛𝘌𝘙𝘗𝘙𝘐𝘚𝘌𝘚 (2026), a sharp and surprising found footage work assembled from a 1940 mail-order film program shown to sugar plantation workers in Hawaiʻi, tracing how images were used to narrate empire, labor, and “progress.”

We’ll then move into a special in-progress presentation of Banua-Simon’s upcoming feature 𝘛𝘏𝘌 𝘗𝘐𝘕𝘒 𝘗𝘈𝘓𝘈𝘊𝘌, a hybrid documentary-fiction project where the Hawaiʻi of 1939 and today converge into a transhistorical blend of fiction and documentary film as a mysterious public relations agent residing in the Royal Hawaiian Hotel is tasked with maintaining the island’s unraveling image.

Ceres X at @uniondocs 🎬

An evening of films where food became memory, ritual, and resistance... across neighborhoods and ecosystems.

Grateful to everyone who gathered with us, and to the filmmakers and collaborators who shaped the evening: Astrid Malter, @anitavolker_hl, @jake_sumo, @alisonbartlett1, Jordana Rubenstein-Edberg & Marshall Hanig, and @fenixcommunityfridge.

From Ridgewood to global perspectives, each story offered a glimpse into how food carries care, culture, and connection.

A thoughtful panel with Astrid Malter, Fenix, Jordana Rubenstein-Edberg, and Natalia Fuentes, moderated by @missmolinga, followed by ice cream from @icecreamwindow, brownies, and @enjoyacid.nyc tastings.

TOMORROW, 𝗧𝗛𝗨𝗥𝗦, 𝗠𝗔𝗬 𝟳 — 𝟳:𝟯𝟬𝗣𝗠

We’re thrilled to co-present a special screening of 𝘕𝘌𝘞 𝘒𝘐𝘕𝘎𝘚𝘛𝘖𝘕 with @rockawayfilmfest, the filmmaking debut of artist 𝗞𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗻 𝗕𝗲𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗱𝗼𝗿𝗳, followed by a conversation with filmmaker 𝗝𝗮𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗡. 𝗞𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘁𝘇 𝗪𝗶𝗹𝗸𝗶𝗻𝘀.

Filmed entirely on an iPhone and scored with Bewersdorf’s own music, the film moves through the seasons in upstate New York, patiently documenting the rhythms of building, repairing, and living. James first encountered the film at @rockawayfilmfest, where it was described as “a refreshingly understated portrait of craftsmanship and the satisfaction that comes from a job well done.” It screened before James’ own feature. Reflecting on the lineup, he writes:

“While our movies couldn’t be more different in execution and worldly expectation… they share a feeling of having been made despite themselves… New Kingston, in particular, offers a vision (a documentary? an essay? an ode?) of the artist pausing during his day job, not to imagine the movie he could be making under more ideal conditions, but rather to continue making the movie already in the making, which is to say life.”

As UNDO continues to exist in a state of construction, we’re especially excited to share a film that dwells so thoughtfully within the rhythms and meaning of that process.
