Description
11 short films from London, Paris, Milan, Miami & other metropolises, diverse perspectives on urbanity as art, fiction and social commentary. These films will guide you beyond borders to discover urban cultures from a new angle. Urban Visions is a skillful staging of the banal and the exceptional that make up our daily lives. Through the lens of contemporary filmmakers, banality reveals itself in its forms, rhythms, and colors. These creations reflect an artistic exploration of image and editing as well as soundtrack, free from the usual technical and financial constraints. Urban Visions demonstrates that, just as in our great cities, anything is possible.
