About
the Film
City of Lust is a modern day Giallo film
produced by Soft Cage Films, a not-for-profit art organization based out of
Chicago. World traveler and Writer/Director David A. Holcombe draws
heavily from his serious involvement in both the Chicago film community as well
as experimental theater.
The film uses many unconventional techniques and
offers a claustrophobic atmosphere, sharp compositions, and radiant
colors. City of Lust has been described
by critics as being "smart, risk taking and edgy".
Synopsis
Arianna is a young woman who moves to the city to escape a traumatic
family life in the suburbs. She works as a cosmetologist and is showing early

a female sex line operator. They agree to meet and soon begin a volatile
relationship. An altercation at work results in Arianna losing her job. Then,
people in her life begin to turn up dead. With Arianna's health, career, and
new relationship all disintegrating before her eyes, how much longer can she,
and those around her, survive?
