Part of "In Memoriam", a body of work comprising several videos, shot entirely within the virtual world of the Grand Theft Auto video game. Solomon transformed Liberty City, the ersatz metropolis based on New York City in which the game is set, into a reflective space of stillness: devoid of players, full of melancholy, nostalgia, loss, grief, and instances of compelling poetic beauty. This work was created in response to the passing of Solomon's lifelong friend, Mark LaPore, at the age of 53, on September 11, 2005.

Reviews
ThiefHott Too much of everything
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.
