Single Film

In 2003, eight Rhode Islanders created a secret apartment inside the busy Providence Place Mall and kept it going for four years, filming everything along the way.

Far more than just a wild prank, the secret mall apartment became an incredibly meaningful act for all the participants, at once an act of defiance against local gentrification, a boundary-pushing work of public/private art, and a 750 square foot space that sticks it to the man.

Supported, in part, by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors through the Department of Arts and Culture as well as the Arts council of Long Beach, the City of Long Beach, and Port of Long Beach.
