Geometry in movies

In this new post I want to link the geometry to other means inside the classroom as it is the case of the movies. There is multitude of movies that deal with geometry and it would be very interesting for the students and to create a different activity in class. Moreover it is something out of the ordinary.

Between them I would like speaking of:

•  Flatland: the story begins in a two-dimensional reality in which triangles, circles and squares live. Thanks to the geometry and an unexpected visit, some Flatland's inhabitants will discover that the third dimension exists. Although it is a question of a movie adapted for all the ages, due to the mathematical concepts also it can be used for students older than 12 years.

• Donald in Mathmagic Land: this entertaining character of Disney,  Donald duck, discovers a place full of numbers and calculations. This movie is a question of the Country of the Mathematics, where he will learn some of the basic concepts related to Mathematics and Geometry. It is wonderful tool to introduce children increasingly in the subject of the numbers!
