A City Runs Through the Festival is an anatomy of the Festival through the eyes of its own audience.

The film observes and records the people travelling, adding to this very simple but effective visual set a pure (and magic) pot pourri of designed and recorded voices and sounds. Hereby not only the people become human beings alive, but also the city awakens.

The TV film consists of two short stories. "Love Under a Pseudonym": A comedy about a modern Don Juan, in which the funny and the sad intertwine, forcing the characters to reflect on life... "A Trip Through the City": A comedy about people's responsibility for their actions... If driver Petrov hadn't driven his rattling luggage through the city at night, it's unlikely that anyone would have thought of causing one scandal after another in the middle of the night...

Alex and Elliot try going on a run.
