Citizen in trance is a mixture of documentary observation and experimentation. The film humorously portrays a whole gallery of characters, objects or humans, who parade through the city. Little by little a secret story is emerging, a melodrama taken from an old radio drama that only the mannequins in their shop windows know: as in any tragedy, death will be inevitable. An unusual and ironic documentary where the montage of images “stolen” from the street pay homage to the anti-heroes of the city.
