Welcome to Williamsburg\, New York&rsquo\;s new bohemia. Or is it? In the late 1980s artists moved into this working class neighborhood \, populated by small manufacturers\, Polish butchers\, and auto repair sho ps\, just across the East River. SoHo took 30 years to change from an artis ts&rsquo\; bohemia to an art gallery hotspot\, to an outdoor shopping mall\ ; Williamsburg&rsquo\;s demise has been much faster\, due in part to a 2005 zoning law change. With a winning combination of wit\, anger\, and politic al savvy\, filmmaker Su Friedrich\, and co-writer Cathy Quinlan\, record ho w the neighborhood has changed from when they arrived in 1989 to the rich-h ipster haven it has become. Friedrich casts a jaundiced eye on the sleek gr anite kitchen counters featured at the condo openings she attends\; she pai nts graffiti on construction fences ('Artists Used To Live Here') and comme nts wryly on her new neighbors ('What&rsquo\;s with all the fancy dogs?'). She gives up mapping an all new construction with building number 173. For anyone who has ever moved to an affordable neighborhood only to find that g entrification renders it unaffordable &ndash\; this is the movie for you.
