“Trap City has transformed into a multi-layered narrative that holds a mirror to society’s allure of fame and power. “More than just a film, ‘Trap City’ is a movement that reflects the intricate tapestry of the contemporary world. It sheds light on the magnetic attraction of fame and the shadows where power can either uplift or shatter the human spirit.” – Tel K. Ganesan
