Realist

·      Realist narratives aim at representing life as we know it. Phrasal terms such as “social realism” extend this idea and focus on issues that confront us in the everyday actualities of our own lives.

The vast majority of films made for mainstream audiences aim to be realistic, that is to say, they aim to preserve and internal logic established early on in the film regarding. In order for realism to be maintained, the rules established at the beginning of film governing the way the film world works cannot be broken later on.

A realist narrative draws its power from the portrayal of real events. Realist narratives focus on the life that we know and are bound by the same rules that our own lives are bound by.  We do not expect a male character in a realist narrative to suddenly zoom up into the sky. Realist narratives often focus on the kinds of issues and challenges that face ordinary people in their everyday lives.
