StoryTerra is an interactive map where you can explore books, movies, games, and historical events by location and time.
The website contains a vast database of over 100,000 works: books, films, games, and TV series, all of which have been carefully mapped to their real-life locations or the closest fictional locations, as well as assigned to a historical period.
Using the map, users can click on countries, regions, or cities to filter works by location. Additionally, a time slider and a period selection are available, allowing you to narrow your search to a specific century, decade, or year.
Clicking on a film or book of interest will display a detailed description of the work, along with a brief synopsis, release date, and the period and location it is associated with. There’s also a link to the Amazon store where you can purchase the film (if available).
In addition, the website will display a trailer for the film in an additional panel, suggest similar productions, and present historical events that occurred during the film’s runtime! The research into the collected data is truly impressive, and the additional information provided is not only for the most popular films and books, but also for niche productions, which are more likely to be associated with a narrow audience, such as those from a given country.
The platform is ideal for history enthusiasts, cultural geography enthusiasts, film buffs, and educational projects that connect culture with space.
