Citywalk

Réalisé par Malin Dahl

A poetic and absurd short stop motion film about shame, sorrow, power – and an unexpected kind of comfort.

A woman walks through the city, carrying an unusual physical attribute. It's strange, maybe shameful – but it’s there, unapologetically.

When a man appears with a troublesome dog, an absurd confrontation unfolds. Her body reacts. A tear is shed. Something once a source of discomfort becomes unexpectedly useful.

CITYWALK is a grotesque and tender urban dream sequence – blending stop motion performance, gender politics, and surreal slapstick into a visceral one-minute journey.
