The relation of film to the artistic, industrial and cultural movements of the 20th and 21st centuries is an ongoing issue for film theorists. With the advent of digital processes and production the relation of art and industry has brought a new set of problems. How do we conceptualise new forms of filmmaking? What theoretical and aesthetic language(s) do we draw on? And how best to rethink film in the face of rapid technological and cultural change? These issues will be investigated by tracing the development of film theory itself, as a set of theoretical and philosophical frameworks that have sought to define, categorise, analyse and debate cinema's complex manifestations.
