The ‘RE:VISION’ series presents a collection of film titles and text elements from films in which the theme of modernisation - in this case the phenomenon of the remake is once again addressed. It’s about films that have been remade.
Stories are never fixed; they shift with time, reframed by new contexts and cultural sensibilities. A remake is not a mere repetition but a reinterpretation. An act of translation that transforms a narrative through its setting, language, and aesthetics. The same story, told again, becomes a reflection of its era, shaped by the values and desires of the present.
Locations reorient meaning, language alters rhythm, fashion and design embed it in the new present. Each retelling is a negotiation, showing that what endures is not the story itself but the act of revisiting it.
