"Space, in all its productions, its manifestations as a location within which bodies exist, interact, repel and attract, is fundamentally connected to the way we relate to ourselves and to our own bodies. This self-perception and perception of/within the world is a fascinating object of analysis when taken within the concept of film consumption. As with so many cliched descriptions of what film is and does, it (film and our relation to it) is often regarded as similar to observing the world, observing our selves. The proliferation of metaphors describing the experience of film form as a 'window on the world', a 'mirror reflecting the world', a 'magical looking-glass', 'dream machine' and so on, testifies to this".
