Barcelonou tramvají

synopsis

A camera mounted on a tram travels through Barcelona’s streets, its gaze governed by the route, speed and rhythm of urban transport. Façades, pedestrians, horse-drawn carts and intersections come together in a moving portrait of the metropolis. This cinematic tour turns infrastructure into a means of discovering the city.
