Chicago 2002

Directed by Richard Copans

A filmmaker, armed with a small digital camera, discovers a city through a handful of characters acting as guides. He entrusts the task of narrating the city entirely to its own inhabitants. Whether these guides are famous or anonymous matters less than their unique talent for making their surroundings feel less foreign to us. Thanks to their intersecting paths, the city’s singular identity gradually emerges from this collage of subjective sequences.
