Summary
Many of the films we have watched in Contemporary International Cinema explore the nature of love on various levels. Some focus on the platonic aspect of human connection, some look at the sociological and nationalistic bonds that hold people together, and some delve deep into the inner workings of a lover’s heart. In my paper I aim to recollect the different ways the directors and screenwriters have portrayed these emotions, examining The Birds, Lovers of the Arctic Circle, Central Station, Before the Rain and Hana-bi, and then to remind ourselves of the many ways in which these films share conceptual territory and remain the universal in their methods.
