This course will look at the global city on screen in relation to wealth and poverty; crime and criminality; surveillance and the state of emergency; gender and sexuality; space, place, and shooting on location; and housing and policing. While the “global city” occupies a central position in the generation and circulation of wealth, this course is also interested in the marginal spaces of such cities and the visual culture produced in them and in relation to them. Key topics include the city’s relationship to personal and public memory; the city as nightmare; neighborhoods, segregation, and sectarianism; the city as a site of subversion and revolution; the city as a space of hope, possibility, and community. Screenings include: Parasite, Sacred Games, La haine/Hate, Chungking Express, Atlantique/Atlantics, and Pose.
