An archaeologist and a weapons designer, who knew each other in a previous life as a filmmaker and a psychoanalyst, meet at an excavation site in the Negev desert and begin a conversation about love and war, which they continue in the Israeli city of Be’er Sheva. A series of encounters with alternating actors in different roles ensues, which leads the viewer through the cities of Athens, Berlin, Hong Kong and São Paulo. Among those appearing are: an old artist who meets his younger self; a mother who lives with her two grown-up sons, a priest and a policeman; a Chinese and a Japanese woman; a curator and a cosmologist.

[DocMadrid] We could say that this is the second part of a trilogy that began with "Streetscapes" (2017) and continues with "The lobby" (2020). If that was a dialogue and the last one is a monologue, "The last city" multiplies spaces and protagonists. It is the adaptation of a dream, in which time and place change, themes intersect, references to the past, present and future are mixed to offer a humorous look. "German-Japanese Guilt Wurst". It is as heterogeneous as the others, and can be pedantic at times. But it is also the conception of cinema as a game of narrative mechanisms.
