The World Before Your Feet follows Matt Green, a man who vows to walk every street in New York City, not for conquest but to notice the city’s hidden rituals, micro-histories, and everyday beauty. Over years, director Jeremy Workman records Green’s patient treks across all five boroughs, capturing sidewalks, parks, stoops, markets, and the conversations and revelations that emerge along the way. As the miles accumulate—roughly 8,000—the film becomes a warm, intimate portrait of curiosity, endurance, and urban life that changes with each step.
