Cinema e fotografia. Su "Palermo Shooting" di Wim Wenders

Abstract

The topic complex of photographer and photography is of central importance for Wim Wenders' cinematic and literary work. Of course, it is not just about photography itself, but a subtle play with narrative and metapoetic references. All the figures of photographers who from the beginning repeatedly appear as protagonists in Wenders' films also tell of pictures and how to make them. Most of them are men who have a disturbed relationship to the world around them and to their own selves. Men who travel in search of a truer grip on reality.
