- SUBWAY STORIES is a compellingly candid account of the unique power of live music in a rat race world. Turning the lens onto a series of otherwise unknown street musicians, the film intimately captures the worldview that shapes and drives these fiercely independent beings, modern minstrels of our time who, if only for a brief moment as we rush by, evoke and inspire our shared humanity, poignantly reminding us of the price - and prize - that comes with standing by your life's passion in an increasingly automated world.—Anonymous
