Paracinema

Paracinema is a type of film-making that is more focused on the art, theories and culture of film. Instead of just showing the stories presented in the movie, paracinema treats the film as something that has its own language, and as a medium that can be used to express ideas in interesting and creative ways. Paracinema filmmakers play with sound, visuals, and creative forms of expression to produce movies that are engaging and inventive. For example, a paracinema film might look at the psychological effects of a particular scene or experiment with the possibilities of cinematic language. Paracinema encourages us to think critically about the way films are presented, and it helps to broaden our understanding of the medium.
