I love Coney Island.
It's my second home.
The entire boardwalk I roam.
(Dakota) And what do I
have to do with anything?
The Lenape were here first.
(in Spanish) Los Lenape
estaban aqu primero.
They called it Narrioch,
Land Without Shadows.
[boat horn]
Coney Island used to be
an island,
but men changed that.
Today it means nothing.
Ships from the Middle Passage
landed here.
A lot of nightmares
started here.
Here.
[gentle clarinet]
[distant screams]
In 1849, Herman Melville
wrote Moby d*ck.
Here.
[waves crash]
Here.
The past is close,
tucked away underneath
and beside and forgotten.
[dreamy music]
This is the way
to Coney Island.
This is what
it looked like in 1987.
When I was 14,
we had to do a paper
on a person or
place I wanted to go.
I picked here.
And this person,
I found him on YouTube.
This is Nelson Sullivan,
and this is his video diary.
We were just on
the Wonder Wheel
and boy was it fun.
(Dakota) He filmed
everything all the time
when he was alive
and living here.
[screams]
John, are you alright?
That was yesterday
and this is today.
In 100 years,
10 million people
will replace all of us.
But for now, we are here.
Mom, you hung up on me?
I'm not crazy.
I know what I'm doing.
Don't tell me that.
And what about the future?
How old do you think
I'll be in like 2055?
Will I even be alive?
[distant bells]
Beginning to think that
I might not even
last that long.
[train announcer]
I wonder how I'll die.
Heart attack, accident,
car crash,
sh**ter, cancer...
Everyone dies of cancer.
My imaginary friend
died of cancer.
I hate it here.
I love it here.
sh*t, sh*t, sh*t, sh*t--
I wanna be a kid again.
I just want Saturday
morning surprises
and secret words.
[subway door dings]
Feel like we ain't
Something special
Take my hand
Let's not waste it
You must trust me
Just trust me... me
And the secret word is...
broke.
Would you know
How far love goes
Love goes
Once you feel it
Then you'll know
You know
Thank you all for listening.
My name's Dakota Hill.
I'm a singer,
also a songwriter.
Tips are always appreciated.
And thank you guys so much.

(Dakota) I remember
shaking salt off
my skin after we dried.
The hot sun, strong breeze.
My mom taking me into
the water again and again.
So I wouldn't
be scared of the waves.
She said I'd been in
the ocean since I was born.
But that I became
afraid when I got older.
I remember her carrying me
into the water,
deeper and deeper.
Saying, you don't
have to be afraid of this.

multiple coyote sightings
in Central Park.
Last confirmed one was
on 102nd Street

on January 12th.
Officers are telling everyone
that if you see a coyote
don't feed it.

What if I'm forgotten?
[birds flutter]
Nelson Sullivan was from
Kershaw, South Carolina.
A g*y musician with big dreams
from a small southern town.
He was working on an opera.
And he moved to
New York in the early '70s.
God, it's so pretty out here.
Instead of making music,
he began filming
with a video camera.
I wonder what time it is.
[waves crash]
It's about sunset.
We're at Coney Island.
The beach is beautiful.
Filmed over
1,900 hours of video tape
and 59 rolls of Super 8.
These are things he saw.
These were his friends.
1,900 hours.
59 reels of things
that happened here.
But there was no one
like him around in 1911.
Back in 1911,
the park in Coney Island
used to be called Dreamland.
There was a movie theater,
a lagoon,
a circus,
with bears, elephants, lions,
and a ride
called Hell's Gate.
In 1911, Memorial Day,
Hell's Gate caught fire.
Sea breeze
pulled the flames up.
The fire burned
down the entire park.
Crowds from all over gathered
to see the orange flames
licking the sky.
[hoses hiss]
[uneasy music]
The lion,
his name was Sultan,
got loose.
[roar]
He was on fire.
And scared.
He ran away,
roaring and afraid.
His trainer ordered
the police to sh**t.
He fell to the ground.
Police dragged him
onto the street.
[g*nsh*t]
They split his skull open
on Surf Avenue
for people to see.
Now, you can't even imagine.
You can't even believe
that happened here.
110 years ago,
1,900 hours,
59 Super 8 reels.

Last time
I called in too, so.
Yeah, that's not
my problem.
Do you think I don't
see through
this party girl sh*t
you're doing?
Wait, are you serious?
You think I'm ducking out
just to party?
Like, wow.
Wow.
Where were you Thanksgiving?
Two people came in
with applications
for seasonal work.
What's that supposed to mean?
Chopping block,
that's gonna happen.
You're heading

Come on, now.

Okay, sorry,

Stupid kid.
Can't believe she touched you.
They're at it again!
The city is reporting
more coyote sighings,
but this time,
instead of Central Park,
they're popping up
in the most unusual places.
[loud dance music]
Today, several
New Yorkers thought
they spotted
something furry on 34th Street.

but not impossible
for the animals to wander
beyond their habitat.

I understand.
Yeah, I know.
Your hair,

Yeah?
Sike, sike.
Maybe it's darker
or something though.
I miss you.
Miss you too.
[train rattles]
Okay, just give me a second,
I have a bunch of them here.
No worries.
I know, I'm gonna have that.
Where's the red nail polish?
Oh no, I'm sick of red.
I have so many reds at home.
But you look so good in red.
Actually, I love this
the best.
It's a little kinky,
I love this.
What do you know about kinky?
Oh, I know about kinky.
I never knew that you knew.
Oh, I know a lot about kinky.
Uh oh.
[laughs]
I do.
I never told you,
but you're my mother.
You never said anything.
You're my mother, so.
I thought we were friends.
We are friends,
but something like that,
I wouldn't tell you.
What do you think of this?
Um... it's nice.
Do you like it?
Do you like this one?
Yeah, I don't like that,
it's ugly.
This is ugly?
Yeah.
Why, I could actually
mix it with this.
I mix everything together.
I'll mix them together.
Thank you, it's very sweet,
it's very nice.
Very nice,
have a merry Christmas.
Oh, you too have

Okay, so what about you?
At the same time.
Oh me?
I'll sneak in your classes.
I'll be

(Dakota) They say you're not
really a New Yorker
until you lived
here for ten years.
I've only been
here for a little while,
but I feel like
I've been here forever.
Somehow.
Nelson didn't live
in Brooklyn.
He lived at
5 Ninth Avenue
in the Meatpacking District.
(Nelson) Hey baby.
Hey.
He used to take people in.
Here.
He taught them everything
he knew about this place.
The parks, clubs, parties.
[parade music]
Nelson's house
was always full.
[piano]
He was kind.
You know,
I heard that you'll never
find a coyote in Brooklyn.
Coyotes have
been here since the 1930s.
They came from
the Great Lakes Regions
and slowly migrated east.
And made their home here
through the 1970s.
They don't live
in large packs,
just small groups
in Central Park, in Queens
around the airport.
One day I think I saw one.
(Schifrin)
In a European capital,
the full weight
of the Russian military.
What the US calls
the initial phase
of a full-scale invasion
with Russian helicopters
flying low
over residential rooftops
and the outskirts of Kyiv
to seize a military airport.
[expl*si*n]
[camera whirs]
(BBC reporter) Today,
after a day-long pause,
including one from Mariupol,
where tens of
thousands of civilians
still try to escape
the devastation.
But in another

President Vladimir Zelensky
said more needs to be done.
[bagels thud]
[muffled TV]
- Hello.
- Hello.
You have reached...
f*ck.
If you would
like to place a request
to find a missing person,
say one.
One.

I didn't understand.
One, one.
- Let's try this again.

Good place, it's 'as is'.
[seagulls]
Um...
Water and gas is included.
Laundry is in the basement.
$1.75 for wash,
$1.50 to dry,
and then 25 cents
for an extra five minutes.
So, uh...
what's the reason
for the move?
Just needed a smaller space.
Well, this is a small space,
but perfect for two
if you wanna get inventive,
but--
- You said 700?
- Mm-hmm.
I'll take it.
Good, good.
[bills rustling]
Seven hundred.
Congratulations.
You can pick up the keys...
Right here.
Just make sure
you ask for Jarman.
Jarman.
Mm-hmm.
510 Avenue C?
Yep.
And if you're there
before four,
you should be all good.
Have a good day now.

Glad you decided to show up.
They called me in

It's gonna be $19.11, hon.
Yes, thank you.
[bags rustles]
Dakota, I don't wanna hear it.
I need my shift back, please.
I need to work.
This is your last chance.
Oh, hey, I tried to text you.
I texted you back,
but it didn't send, probably.
Well, I just wanted to
tell you that I'm moving back.
Moving back where?
Back home.
I didn't wanna just disappear
and not tell you anything,
so that's why
I was trying to hang out.
No more college sh*t?
No, I'm over that.
I'm just gonna go home
and help my mom
with a vintage shop
that she's starting,
and yeah, I don't know,
I'm gonna do that

Attacks continue
from Russian forces
on multiple fronts
in the south and east.
In cities like Kyiv,
it's not so much
about clearing up
as pushing back against
that military aggression.
A new 30-plus billion
dollar proposal
was created
to help Ukraine today
as Congress passed a bill
that would make it
easier to send
weapons to
Ukraine and NATO allies.
[Dakota sings]
Uh, literally.
I'm f*cking crazy.
What is this?
I found this on the stoop.
No...
Your parents ever have these?
Like, 90s...
My parents used to have these.

It circled around me.
Out from the leaves.
The broken branches.
Behind the trashcans
out of the foggy park.
Beneath the bridge
and into the park wood.
Here.
At first, it was kind.
But one day,
it showed me its teeth.
Hungry.
Licking and bloody.

Here.
I called 311.

There's something
wrong with you. I swear.
You know my mom?
She has two birds.
A yellow one and a green one.
And then one night,
the green one flew away.
It got kinky with the
whole neighborhood of birds.
And then I come out
and I look up
and there are
green birds everywhere.
[laughs]
And I was like,
mom, what the f*ck?
Yeah.
That happened
in my neighborhood too.
Where?
In DR.
I was born there.
You were a cute baby, huh?
[laughs]
No, just prickly.
Cute prickly baby.
Aww.
When was the last time
you were home?
Like home
or like home, home?
Like home, home, girl.

I haven't been
home since I was little.
I had sort of...
I had two sort of homes.
My mom's part Haitian.
My dad's Dominican.
So I'm a part of
both sides of the island.
Daddy, look at my hair.
I moved from DR.
when I was six.
It took me a long time
to get used to the cold upstate.
The snow.
I was homesick
for a long time.
[Mom speaks Spanish]
Back home it was always warm.
My dad used to have
these big cookouts.
All my cousins
and neighbors,
friends would come over.
We used to party from noon
deep into the night.
Everyone would start dancing.
[music]
My mom and dad
had this one song
they always used to dance to.
[dance music]
[click]
Same old song.
It's so corny
but yeah, it's like
just one of
the things I remember.
That's not corny.
As a kid.
It's quite romantic.
What was his name?
Oh, his name's Yuri.
I'm sorry.
[sighs]
I'm very sorry.
We should go do something.
Like what?
Are you serious?
It's summertime.
It's New York.
We should go do something.

The world is so big. What do

I was here.
Damn the chaos,
bless the harmony.
I don't want to be
a collection of sorrows.
Time is indifferent to us
and so is the earth.
Nelson Sullivan
showed the world his life,
parties, wild late nights,
his friends, club kids.
And what he felt
and let us know
what the sky looked like
in 1983, 85, 86.
Here, 1,900 hours
and 59 reels.
In 1989,
Nelson decided to make
his own public access TV show
and quit his job to do so.
He was gonna dedicate
the show to his friend
who had just passed.
- I'm really
going to miss Christina.
There are so few people
who are still gentle and kind
like she was.
- On July 3rd,
Nelson recorded this.
- It's July the 3rd and
it's the last day I'm gonna have
not to be running.
- And on July 4th,
Nelson left us too.
- I've always loved
these piers on the west side.
I think they're slated
for destruction
and I think
that's a terrible thing.
- There is what you will
and there is what
the earth will not give you.
Time is indifferent to us
and so is the earth.
When we want to stay,
the earth says no.
Time says no.
I beg and plead at the foot
of every presence I ever knew.
But time says no.
I beg, but the earth says no.
You must move.
You must move now.
You have to go forward
and not look back.
To all the friends I've known
and to all those to come,
I miss you and always will.
And I've loved you so much.
In a few years,
there's gonna be a casino here.
There's gonna be
a shopping complex
and a hundred more condos,
maybe a new park.
Time is ours,
but only for a second.
The earth laughs and cries,
but I dance in the face of it.
Whatever happens to me,
it'll always be
one more year without you,
then five and then seven.
Until it's as
if we hadn't't met at all.
As if we hadn't been at all.
And instead of a return,
instead of an ending,
we all become every corner,
every sound,
scent, sight,
every joy
that takes us back to the way
things were not
supposed to be.
And I dance
in the face of it.
When I'm old, I'll leave
all my sadness here
and take all the joy with me
for the rest of my days.
I'll come out into
the sun in my own time.
Fall into the water
in my own time.
And dive into the deep,
come up for air
and come back out
to dry in my own time.
Grace to the
dude that ripped me off.
Grace to his daughter.
Grace to the kids
across the street.
Grace to the woman,
the next door neighbor.
Grace to the girl
that sings on the train.
And Grace to me.
Grace to my friends
and the way I remember them.
Grace to my friends,
and Grace to the
way I remember them.
Grace.
I confide to the earth
a question,
Spirit.
Could this be happening
to everyone in all places?
Yes.
I am one.
