Buenos Aires. La ciudad dormida is a fascinating exploration of the unseen night workers that keep the city alive while the rest of us sleep.

The pacing is contemplative, allowing viewers to absorb the atmosphere of the night, from bustling kitchens to quiet streets. The film captures the grit and resilience of its subjects without romanticizing their struggles. There’s a haunting beauty in the shots of a city at rest, juxtaposed with the lives of those who inhabit the shadows. It makes you think about the layers of urban life—what happens when the sun goes down? The performances are raw and authentic, a testament to their everyday realities.
