‘Film is a visual representation of a mobile world. As Clarke suggests, however, film is also rendered a distinct geographic object of inquiry through its diversity of mobilities, and it is this very characteristic that invites scrutiny and provokes thought. While the very idea of landscape study, for instance, is built around observation from a fixed point of a static scene, film viewing involves the observer taking a mobile view on a mobile world.’
