By way of an answer, this concise and innovative study locates organicity in the work of Béla Tarr, the renowned Hungarian filmmaker and pioneer of the “slow cinema” movement. Through a wholly original analysis of the long take and other signature features of Tarr’s work, author Thorsten Botz-Bornstein establishes compelling links between the seemingly remote spheres of film and architecture, revealing shared organic principles that emphasize the transcendence of boundaries UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781785335679?locatt=mode:legacy UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781785335679 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781785335679/original ER -
