Welcome to WILLIAMSBURG: the hip, upstart, intellectual mecca of New York City, the land where people would rather be artists than make art. Williamsburg is a voyeuristic picture about seven ‘artists’ living in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and their comical, usually absurd, intertwining lives: (1) a coke-head film producer, trying to score anything he can get his hands on; (2) a whore with aspirations of becoming a novelist; (3) a thief who robs to make money for his independent film; (4) a misogynistic, eccentric screenwriter, trying to sell his first script; (5) a chain-smoking, sickly street-artist, drifting, trying to get by; (6) a frustrated, Slovakian sex-pot illustrator; and (7) a bulimic, failing, closet-homosexual male actor.
