DRONE DRIVER

Drone Driver is a neon-drenched sprint through New York’s new suburbia — a city turned technocratic, rain-slick, and watched from above. Women move through its streets with drones as their companions and witnesses: walking the avenues, slipping into taxis, echoing and subverting the iconic scenes of Taxi Driver with a cold, future-facing grace. Each moment is a glitch in the city’s old story — a hall, a theatre, a backseat, rewritten through chrome, ink-trained AI, and the quiet defiance of women who refuse to vanish into the noise. This is Manhattan recoded. This is suburbia gone vertical. This is Drone Driver: a short film where the drones see everything, and the women finally see themselves. A short film in The Drones of Suburbia: NYC series.
