Text author: Iris Vidmar
In this paper the author examines the view according to which film is a medium of philosophy. One of the most pressing issues in this debate is whether film can provide original philosophical contribution, or whether it can only illustrate a given philosophical problem. The author claims that this question cannot be raised independently of the perspective of a viewer and his background knowledge.
