The Gates

    A new documentary from Antonio Ferrera and Albert Maysles chronicles the long struggle Jeanne-Claude and Christo fought in brining "The Gates" to New York City.

    It explores the question of why it took 30 years for the city to ok their project, but leaves the mystery of Jeanne-Claude's hair color unanswered.
