Cinema of the Real

Cinema of the Real refers to a style of filmmaking that prioritizes authenticity and realism over fictional storytelling. This approach includes genres like documentary films and some forms of narrative cinema that strive to depict real-life events, people, and social issues accurately. Filmmakers in this genre often use techniques such as naturalistic dialogue, real locations, and unscripted moments to capture genuine experiences. The goal is to invite audiences to engage with the world as it is, prompting reflection on real-life subjects and fostering a deeper understanding of the human condition.
