Gen Z & Stillness (Cerqueiro)
"Slow Cinema stands as a radical act of defiance [..] Gen Z viewers are turning to this form of cinema—not despite its slowness, but because of it. [..]
The endurance of Slow Cinema suggests that it offers something modern audiences still need, a space for contemplation, a break from the hyperactive rhythms of digital culture, and an opportunity to experience time differently.
[..] Cinematic theorists argue that films embracing time and perception will always have an enduring appeal."
