WTC View
2005 American film / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
WTC View is an American film released in 2005, based on the 2003 play of the same name by Brian Sloan, that traces the search for a roommate in the weeks following the September 11 attacks. Eric (Michael Urie), a gay photographer, places an ad for a new roommate on September 10, 2001, for his apartment with a view of the World Trade Center.[1] He encounters prospective roommates in varying stages of grief, including a campaign worker for mayoral candidate Mark Green, a boisterous construction worker, an idealistic NYU student, and a trader on Wall Street, each of whom share his own perspective on the events. Throughout the film, Eric deals with the aftermath of 9/11, the trauma it has caused and continues to cause him, and the resulting split from his boyfriend.
