In 1928 Sigfried Giedion claimed that film alone can make modern architecture understandable.Nowadays architecture has even grown closer to new media and film technique. What implications does this have for architecture in general? Can we learn something from the movies in order to understand recent architectural developments better?

The class will start with a number of theoretical introductions followed by the presentation of movies and /or film clips. We will take a look at the spatial representation in genral within the movie, and architectural means within the medium film.
