Listen to the City

About This Movie

Listen to the City is a curious blend of drama and a cautionary tale set in a dystopian future. The atmosphere is heavy, almost oppressive, as Hupar emerges from his long slumber, navigating a world that feels both familiar and alien. The pacing has this strange rhythm, allowing character moments to breathe while the tension builds around their quest. The interactions between Hupar, Arete, and Sophis are engaging; there's a real chemistry that feels authentic amid the backdrop of corporate corruption. The practical effects, though not groundbreaking, have a gritty charm that adds to the film's overall tone. It's a stark vision of societal decay, with performances that ground it in a reality that still resonates today. Not a typical '80s fare, that's for sure.
