Rat Film
“Rats, maps, & extermination in an American city”
Documentary
Across walls, fences, and alleys, rats not only expose our boundaries of separation but make homes in them. "Rat Film" is a feature-length documentary that uses the rat—as well as the humans that love them, live with them, and kill them--to explore the history of Baltimore.
VIBE
A strangely hypnotic dive into Baltimore's underbelly. It's a gritty, observational look at a city through the eyes of its most persistent, unwelcome residents. This documentary feels like a slow, deliberate exploration of urban decay and the lives intertwined with it.
