A Comparative Study of Spatial Narratives in Eastern and Western Cyberpunk Films

This study takes representative cyberpunk films from the East and the West as the research object, compares them from the perspective of spatial narration, and reveals the similarities and differences in their narrative styles and cultural expressions. In terms of physical space, narrative space, psychological space, auditory space, and virtual space, it explores the complex relationship between technology and humanity, society and individual, and its multidimensional expression in cyberpunk films from the East and the West. This study emphasizes the central role of spatial narratives in Eastern and Western Cyberpunk Films and provides theoretical support for an in-depth study of the global influence of cyberpunk culture and its narrative strategies.
