Abstract

The article examines the process of formation of public perception of smart cities and intelligent technologies by cinema. The relevance is due to the development of urbanization, the growth of megacities, the development of smart technologies of the future, reflected in domestic cinema. The work applies an interdisciplinary methodological combination of management, sociology of management, urban studies and media studies to analyze the representation of smart cities in domestic TV series. Key patterns and socio-psychological aspects of perception, such as fears and hopes associated with technological progress, are highlighted. The study emphasizes the importance of cinema in shaping citizens' ideas about new technologies, risks and expectations, which is of practical value for urbanists and managers in the renovation and planning of urban spaces. The results can be used to adapt the cultural concepts of smart cities to local conditions and in the implementation of smart city projects.
