A journey into the city’s multifaceted soul<\/span><\/b><\/h5>\n<\/div>\n
\n

The Walking City is a four-hour immersion in the city. A hypnotic walk through a city we may think we know, but whose soul grows larger and deeper the longer we wander. Like a real-life fable, it reveals aspects of city life we have never met before.<\/span><\/p>\n

We follow in the footsteps of some of the city’s residents. They are silent, just walking. Like shadows, we linger behind as they lead us deeper into the city’s landscapes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Walking City is inspired by a Japanese manga by Jiro Taniguchi. Over a four-hour stretch, we follow image after image, place after place, from the center to the outskirts.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

A warehouse of colonial wealth, clusters of tourists, sunbathing bodies, high-value real estate developments, ever-expanding islands, mountain trails among the chimneys. Different temporalities and geographies intermingle, while a call to rebellion comes from the sea like a distant, seductive song.<\/p>\n

We meet people in the city we do not know. Slowly, we become more and more entwined in a fascinating reality of life and destinies. The world opens up from unknown perspectives. This is how the city looks to some of its other inhabitants.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
