Mythology; interprets and examines the understanding of gods, superheroes, creation and floods in folk cultures, death and life concepts, especially trying to classify people's alternative stories. These stories form the memory of societies by being transferred from generation to generation. On the basis of these understandings, we will have the opportunity to review the stories and epics occupant in our memories through cinema. We will be gazing at the past through either mythological films or that are directly reflected or through contemporary stories that are originated from mythological stories.
The third seminar of the series to be broadcast on Thursday, April 8th on Akbank Sanat Youtube channel, will be based on Alejandro Jodorowsky's film “La Montaña Sagrada" produced in 1973.
