The Films By Year

The aim is to curate, but also to add a context, a narrative to the evolution of the visual language; a universal method of communication that plays across cultures and divides, communication with symbols and visual cues. What separates photography and cinema from the previous visual mediums is their ability to take control of the eye, crafting a surrogate field of vision, the act of seeing through another's lens. Here we will detail the vocabulary, grammar and greatest works of a language that is able to speak in abstract concepts and emotions just as easily as I type these words.
