Film

Film refers to a medium used for recording, creating, and projecting moving images, commonly known as motion pictures. It is both an art form and a technological process that captures real-life scenes or animated sequences on a flexible strip of plastic coated with light-sensitive emulsion, although digital formats are now prevalent. Films typically convey stories, express ideas, or evoke emotions through a combination of visual imagery, sound, and editing.

The term “film” can also denote a specific artistic work, such as a feature film, short film, or documentary, which is produced for entertainment, educational, or artistic purposes. Film can be shown in theaters, on television, or through various digital platforms. It encompasses various genres, styles, and techniques, ranging from narrative storytelling to experimental works. In addition to its entertainment value, film serves as a powerful medium for cultural expression and communication, influencing societal norms and reflecting contemporary issues.
