posted on 2023-06-08, 06:20 authored by Rosalind Galt
This article analyzes Lars von Trier's film "Zentropa" (1991), arguing that it uses cinematic space to articulate Europe's historical and geopolitical spaces. Of particular interest are the film's intertextuality, its layering of superimposed images, and the relationships that it suggests exist between East and West, postwar and post-Wall, Germany and Europe.
