Abstract: *Project Cinema City* critically explores the interplay between cinema, urban life, and cultural production in a transforming metropolis. Framed by a conceptual foreword, the project unfolds through four thematic sections: the mobility of cinema (*The Travels of a Project*), its role in shaping urban imaginaries (*Mapping Imaginations*), the hidden labor sustaining it (*Performing Labour*), and the shifting boundaries of cinematic experience (*Viewing Limits*). Blending research, art, and archives, the project reimagines the city through film, revealing how moving images construct and contest our perceptions of space, identity, and memory in an increasingly mediated urban world.
