Sumario: | The relationship between cinema and city are interrelated because film arises as an urban experience. According to the division elaborated by Gilles Deleuze, classic cinema is conceived from an image-movement perspective whereas modern cinema from an image-temporal aspect. However contemporary films are founded in a dimension between image and space. This article analyzes recent films from argentine cinema that allow the contemplation of images that inhabit an urban sensation. Throughout the analysis, elements like the night, the summer and the heat show the audience the circulation of the city of Buenos Aires while at the same time exhibit a possible understanding of urban images through the sensations that cross everyday transit: the suffocation, the humidity, the vapors, the smells and the phantasmagoric memories of encounters and separations that all constitute a city. |
