This film explores the symbiotic relationship between the city’s infrastructure and the people who move through it. The escalator carries us steadily from one place to another, asking no questions, working tirelessly in a measured rhythm, rotating unstoppable, offering a short moment to wonder, a liminal pause in everyday life.
It holds a multitude of stories and destinies, and always keeps on moving. When will it stop?
