First cinema characteristics are made in the early 1920's.

where all available film are made silent or without voice just the movement of the characters and it has no color. exposing what we called the possitive film capturing every movement its like a multiple pictures taken in every characters move and played a projectors with a lense that resembling the function of a human eyes in a consistent speed and creates actual life movement when viewed in the silver or white screens.

“Towards a third cinema” is a manifesto written by  Solanas and Getino. They purpose a new organization of the world of cinema broken down into three categories; first, second, and third cinema. First cinema being hollywood, and second cinema being European art film which rejects hollywoods conventions but focuses on the auteur director. Now, in the time of the creation and formation of third world countries, a seed for third cinema was planted. These countries, already inhabited by natives, were being colonized by capitalist countries. “Film was consumer good and seemed in favor of anti-historicism” (2). Being overturned by different foreign powers, the natives weren’t left with a voice, and the Third Cinema, is where their voice came out. This became a type of cinema to show the truth from the eyes of the repressed, as they choose to display it through the same medium as the higher classes choose to show their fantasies and stories. There could be the idea that because there are two different types of peoples find themselves together on land, both claiming it to be theirs, that they could share their cultures and ideas, and the land with each other. Of course the way we know humans to work is to develop a divide between the surpressed and oppressed. In Latin America in mid nineties was being lost to European and American cultures. Their voice, culture, land, economy, and business was being stolen away from them and to respond to that, they enabled the use of the Third Cinema.
