The rat infestation in Baltimore forms the basis of this bold, creative essay-film that touches upon the city’s racial problems, urban planning, state influence on segregation and the precarious living conditions of poorer and racialised communities in the US. Pulsating with creative energy, imaginative juxtapositions, deep analytical focus and an unsettling experimental soundtrack by Dan Deacon, Anthony’s expansive approach never loses sight of the lives and concerns of the people he meets.
