Berlinale 2021 — Covid the flow?
Maximilien Luc Proctor looks back at the Berlinale, contemplating the impact of our current moment on the films and the festival itself.
Photogénie combineert een gevoel van verwondering met scherpe analyses. Het verbindende principe is de intense beleving van cinema. De artikels op deze website – over oude en nieuwe films, cinema uit het heden en verleden – proberen deze beleving niet in vooropgezette kaders te laten passen, maar willen de lezer / kijker ontvankelijk maken voor wat films ons kunnen laten zien, in een poging de allure van cinema onder woorden te brengen.
