What Is Film Narrative?



  • A film narrative is the story that the movie is telling, whether that narrative is linear or fractured.
  •  A chain of events in a cause-effect relationship, occurring in time and space. A narrative is not a random string of events.
  • narrative (or story) is any account of connected events, presented to a reader or listener in a sequence of written or spoken words, or in a sequence of (moving) pictures
  • ‘Narration’in film is the telling of a story,through a 
  • combination of audio/visual techniques(sound and vision).
  • Remember how a camera can communicate a perspective?
  • The camera can be a'subjective'(personal pov)oran
  • 'objective'(omniscient-all knowing/seeing)narrator.
  • This places us as 
  • spectators in the film,giving us a preferred attitude in relation 
  • to character.
