Secret Mall Apartment

20251h 32mEnglishUnited States

In 2003, eight Rhode Islanders—including Michael Townsend, Colin Bliss, and James J.A. Mercer—built a hidden apartment inside a busy mall and lived there covertly for four years, filming their stay along the way. Jeremy Workman's documentary draws on that footage to chart how the clandestine residence became a deeply meaningful place for everyone who shared it.
