The Flatland Movie

"Flatland" is an animated film based on the 1884 novella by Edwin A. Abbott. It depicts a two-dimensional world inhabited by geometric shapes, where social status is determined by one's shape. The story follows a square who encounters a three-dimensional being from "Spaceland," challenging his understanding of reality. As he learns about dimensions beyond his own, the film explores themes of perception, social hierarchy, and the limitations of one's worldview. Through its allegorical narrative, "Flatland" prompts viewers to reflect on our own understanding of existence and the potential for broader perspectives.
