Future is a movie

The article’ s main idea deals with film as a dominant paradigm of storytelling - not only in the sphere of audiovisuality - but also in all contemporary art and culture. Film is just the most common pattern of statement - that is the condition of culture after the iconic turn (ikonische wendung). In the modern (postmodern) world film (in terms of movie language) has “expanded its wings” and covered the area of commercials, politics and entertainment (e.g. in computer games). Film is nowadays the most popular way of using culture – each of us can be e viewer as well as a creator (with the little help of the simple electronic equipment). Film appears to be a hegemon of contemporary and future narrativity - thanks to the similarity to the human way of seeing the reality and to its emotional influence. One of the streams in the humanities’ discours links film with the religious experience and - in this way - tries to explain the power of the art of moving image. What are the perspectives of education in the context of the movie-digital era? In authors opinion the film - as a specific language of storytelling, showing and even poetry speech - should be included into the area of the school subject connected with culture - especially Polish. Nevertheless - this is the film that gives the literature another life.
