Abstract
Cinematic space, imagined or real, seen as counter-archive relies on its perceived potential as intangible heritage, its impact on narration in film, and its influence on memory of built space. The research looks into the instrumental role of filmic architectural space as an agent of collective memory. Cinematic space, with its conscious or unconscious intentions and multiple views, is not neutral, as film is more than a form of expression. Its spatial manipulation - the space (re)assembled through montage - is oftentimes contrary to the usual understanding of space. Therefore, it becomes a tool for critical research on architecture, permitting alternative interpretations of architectural space.

Cinematic space in-between reality and fiction
Cinematic space, imagined or real, seen as counter-archive relies on its perceived potential as intangible heritage, its impact on narration in film, and its influence on memory of built space. The research looks into the instrumental role of filmic architectural space as an agent of collective memory. Cinematic space, with its conscious or unconscious intentions and multiple views, is not neutral, as film is more than a form of expression. Its spatial manipulation - the space (re)assembled through montage - is oftentimes contrary to the usual understanding of space. Therefore, it becomes a tool for critical research on architecture, permitting alternative interpretations of architectural space.
