Poetry or threat? An act of surrender or perhaps art? These were the
theories that New York puzzled over last summer. How can one incident
be interpreted in so many ways? By means of press reports, Symbolic
Threats allows the public at large to express their extreme disparity
of interpretation. Inspired by the heated debate over the two „White
American Flags“ that suddenly appeared on the towers of New York
City’s iconic Brooklyn Bridge, the film asks what kind of societal
scope art has in the present day. What happens when threatened freedom
reinstates art with the element of danger? Who or what makes it into a
threat? Are we safe in the city? What is next?
