Raw City
A city slowly losing those who shape it
Overview
“Raw City” is an observational documentary set in Gori, where many young people are forced to think about leaving. It explores migration as a real, everyday experience shaped by limited opportunities. Staying often means accepting restrictions, while leaving becomes the only way forward. The film follows artists, students, and young professionals through their daily lives, showing the quiet pressure behind this decision. Without narration, it relies on real moments and observation. At its center is Gori’s Art House, a fragile cultural space that still gives some a reason to stay. “Raw City” presents a city where the future of its young generation is slowly disappearing.
