DOUBLE FEATURE: KOGONADA COLUMBUS + AFTER YANG


Details
🎬 Double Feature: The Cinema of Kogonada – Columbus and After Yang
This screening invites you into the quiet, poetic world of Kogonada, a filmmaker known for his meditative style, visual precision, and philosophical depth.
Kogonada’s style is marked by minimalist compositions, architectural framing, and a quiet emotional resonance. He often uses space and stillness to reflect inner lives, allowing viewers to contemplate rather than consume. His films feel like visual meditations—each shot carefully considered, each moment allowed to breathe.
🏛️ Columbus (2017) In the architectural gem of Columbus, Indiana, two strangers meet under unusual circumstances. Over the course of the movie, we are treated to beautiful views of the city’s modernist landmarks, along with thoughtful reflections on purpose, place, and human connection. In my opinion almost every frame of this film could stand alone as a work of art.
🌿 After Yang (2021) Set in a near-future world, After Yang explores the subtle unraveling of a family’s routine after their android companion unexpectedly shuts down. What follows is a gentle journey through memory, identity, and the quiet ways we try to understand those we love.
