How do cities shape stories on screen? How does space influence characters and the atmosphere of a film? What role do cities like Paris, Berlin, and Nice play in shaping the narratives of the films they appear in? Join Anji, an Oscar-nominated filmmaker, as we dive into the art of creating cinematic environments and explore the role of cities in film. This session will focus on iconic urban settings, analyzing how filmmakers use space to tell stories and influence emotions.
We'll examine how cities become characters themselves in movies, shaping the narrative through their streets, architecture, and atmosphere. From the romantic streets of Paris to the gritty energy of Berlin, we’ll explore how filmmakers create an emotional landscape through their use of space. What makes Paris, Berlin, and Nice such unforgettable settings in film, and how do they influence the characters within them?
Let’s sit back with good friends in comfy chairs as we sip on stiff cocktails, eat tasty popcorn, and watch scenes from films where cities play a pivotal role. And, of course, let’s have a deep, fun, and intelligent discussion about our mutual cinematic journey!
