ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Those hidden pockets scattered throughout cities - spaces where the public-facing world blends into the private lives of people.
This episode explores three different backyards at different times of the day, in different cities.
From a November morning in Prague where artificial light melts with the waking day, to a Viennese residential yard where fragments of life fall like musical notes from windows, to a cobblestone square where hard stones reflect the city's awakening.

The space becomes an acoustic instrument, shaping and reflecting the sounds that pass through it. These are threshold spaces - not quite inside, not quite outside - where the city shows its softer side.
