Play :: A documentary maker returns to the city of his birth. His task, to film his impressions. An old man remembers a time when eagles flew over the city. A TV executive reaches breaking point in the city he loves. A struggling actor seeks fame in a city which doesn't seem to want him. A young woman ends her artistic dreams in a city which eludes her. A receptionist tries to break the mould of her life in the city where she's always lived. A rock star sings to himself in a city he's forgotten the name of. Under the same city sky, a host of characters come together and brush shoulders in a pattern of overlapping lives. Each of them has a story to tell, but who will listen?
