Chaos theory and post-structuralism in Mr Nobody (2009) / Deanna Ishak
This academic exercise is based on Jaco Van Dormael’s Mr Nobody (2009), regarding a mathematical study known as chaos theory that is portrayed in the narration of the film. The study explores to see what chaos theory through the context of cinema and explores on how it engages in film. Using a quali...
