About the Presentation:
Berlin, a cinematic marvel, takes the spotlight in Jaume Collet-Serra’s action-thriller "Unknown" (2011).

Key Themes:
• Performative identities in the context of Goffman’s notion of performance.
• Loss of memory and its impact on identity, complemented by Michel de Certeau’s insights.
