Twin City Twist

About This Movie

Twin City Twist is really something else. It's a documentary, sure, but it feels like a meditative dance through Minneapolis in the fall of 2022. The way it captures the stillness of the city, yet reflects its past troubles, is quite striking. Shot on Kodak Tri-X reversal super 8 film, you get this grainy texture that almost pulls you in. The kaleidoscopic lenses add this dreamlike quality—it’s like you’re seeing the city through a different lens, literally and metaphorically. The pacing is slow, almost hypnotic, allowing you to soak in every frame. And there’s this underlying plea for change, for disturbance, that gives it a real weight. Definitely a distinctive piece of work, even if the director's identity remains a mystery.
