I started this channel to deepen my understanding of cinema, and share my learnings. It slowly evolved into something even more personal where i share the conversations movie or the filmmaker were trying to have with us. I love watching films, i often connect with them on deeper levels. This channel is where i share those insights from these films, and of course the filmmaking techniques. Hope you enjoy my videos. Thanks for watching!!!
