NIAGARA’S FURY
ABOUT
NIAGARA’S FURY is a photographic documentary that explores the city that has grown up around the world's most famous waterfalls. A series of intricately composed tableaux examines eerily empty monuments to tourism, entertainment and consumption. The film ponders over the confusion and absurdity of mankind's icons and why the falls might be so furious.
