The Story of Film: A New Generation

What happened in the world of cinema during the past decade? This is the question Mark Cousins attempts to answer in this film. By looking at an eclectic selection of films – Frozen, Joker, Apichatpong Weerasethakul’s Cemetery of Splendour and more – Cousins examines recurring motifs and themes of the 2010–2021 period, while also exploring the disruptive impact of digitalization, new screening venues and the pandemic.
