Talk to Me (2020)

Drawing inspiration from films in the city-symphony tradition, what began as a student project to record impromptu interviews with strangers evolved into a part-documentary/part-visual tone poem, exploring modern life with a cross-section of Chicagoans whose own stories create the rhythm of the city itself.
