| Title | Postmodern cinema and postmodern culture: information-communication, otherness and history in Wenders’s Himmel über Berlin (Wings of Desire) | |
| Creator | Olivier, B. | |
| Description | What one may call the obscenity of information is the common thread that runs through Wim Wenders's film Wings of Desire, postmodern culture a n d Baudrillard's radical cultural critique. The latter shows that communication has degenerated into the availability of information (in advanced, post-industrial countries , at least), while Wenders’s film provides a paradigm for the problematization of communication and personal history in a postmodern culture of fragmentation. | |
