As a result, in cinemas you can see a lot of beautiful pictures with amazing detail and 3D effects, but with a minimum semantic load. Therefore, there is an increasing interest in heavy psychological films with meaning, which not only loads the eyesight, but is compelled to empathize with the characters and ponder the events on the screen.
