Metropolis

Four distinct men of different age and various backdrop come to a metropolitan city to start their careers. How their fates get intertwined when they meet each other in a trap-city makes for the the crux of this story. “Part urban noir, part social realist exposé, part melodrama where the fates of urbanites crisscross with those of recent arrivals from the countryside, Metropolis offers a picture of Tamil Nadu’s capital that is as unflattering as it is, strangely enough, hopeful.” – International Film Festival Rotterdam
