Ο χώρος και ο χρόνος στα φτερά του έρωτα του Wim Wenders

Abstract

The (post)modern experience encountered by the contemporary man in space and time seems to be the focal point of Wim Wenders’ contemplations, since the urban setting, as well as the movement inside it play an immense part in his cinematographic work. In this study we investigate the way, that the urban experience becomes observable in the movie Wings of Desire through the angels and humans perception of space and time, through the movement that the urban means of transport offer, and through the movement of the camera itself. The conclusions reached will concern the placement of the movie itself in the (post)modern setting that Wenders constructs for his leading characters.
