Cinema is considered to be a dream inducer art, one which redefines the relation between the mental and the concrete, between the real and the imaginary. It relates the reproduction of human life, whether as a narrative or a documentary, and interwoven with the director’s worldview. Among all cinematic genres, poetic movies excite the most the mind of the audience and train the most their imagination power. Poetic movies entail a dreamy view and reproduce a different and specific world from the real world. From this perspective, watching a poetic movie is no different from participating in a ritual, one which invites the viewer to join the director in the experience of the reproduction of the work of art. Norm deviation and de familiarization in this cinematic genre creates a temple-like and mythical space in the mind of the viewer from a psychological perspective and helps engender a novel and ideal universe in their dream land. This springs from the director’s intuitive conceptualizations about life and the universe which incessantly poses questions and incites the audience to make interpretations. This is a thought-provoking cinema which explores the entity of reality and leaves the audience with the task of exploring the nature of reality. The world of dream, legends, myths, and rituals represents an apt source of illumination for poetic films.
