Filter City

Filter City focuses on two women, their mutual relationship and how they relate to a city that is changing - architecturally, politically and socially. The film uses images of modern apartment complexes that recall various western cities. The characters tell a story about the spaces they inhabit, and also about their desires for friendship, intimacy and meaning. They can use the urban spaces, but don't escape economic or social control. A series of carefully constructed scenes moving at a slow pace serve to show us the development of the relationship between the women based on their position within the framework and their different use of language. They talk to each other, but also over each other's head.
