High Line Stories was produced by the Sundance Channel and Friends of the High Line. The series broadcast during the opening of the High Line, a 1.5 mile-long elevated park on an abandoned railway on Manhattan’s west side in Spring 2009. These profiles, including Kevin Bacon, Diane von Furstenberg, and Ethan Hawke, highlight the efforts to preserve the structure, and to transform it into a world-renowned park. Directed by Matt Wolf
