CRY OF THE CITY
Cry of the City tells us of the challenges that young people have to face in order to follow their dreams, in a haunting piece directed by Boldizsár Cr.
Boldizsar CR Director teamed up with Paul Rowland (Creative Director) to produce a memorable Fashion Film commissioned by Premier Model Management.
The film tells us of the challenges that young people have to face in order to follow their dreams in the Big City.
Facing alienation and financial hardships often can lead to bad decisions in life. We used style, music, mood and a tough dialog between copper and criminal sampled from Robert Siodmak’s Cry of the City.

Boldizsár is self-taught filmmaker with a background in video art. Born and raised in Budapest, Boldizsár drew on his love of classic and avant garde film-making and began to develop his own rich style. Moving from art film into more broadly narrative pieces as a director, Boldizsár manages to maintain the visual richness of his early work and a new mature venture into storytelling.
Cry of the City is a multi layered, moral tale in a fashion context. Instead of giving answers it's more about raising questions. It is a celebration of being different, but also an expression of feelings possibly emerging from being alienated based on real or imagined reasons.
