How Can Your Major Make the World a Better Place

In my opinion, the power of cinema lies in being able to develop a subjectivation device that works as an
empathy machine. The power of cinema lies in delivering experiences of differents worlds and being
able to have faith in them. Cinema delivers values and atrocities that allow us to get closer to life and imagination.
However, nowadays cinema and art in general are alienating. Art takes us away from the world,
instead of bringing us closer. If we see murders or rapes we are not disturbed because it is a fiction.
The work in its condition of representation loses all its vital condition, causing us to become more insensitive
to what we experience.
The cinema that i am most interested in and the one that I think can be a contribution to the world is
the one that does not alienate us due to its ethical, aesthetic and political approaches. This cinema
must give us the faith that what we are seeing is real. For this reason, I am also interested in the
hybrids between documentary and fiction, especially from the stylistic dimension, since this doubt of
not knowing if it is real or not, allows us to delve deeper into what we see.
Checked for progression.
