Congrats! Great entries!

![divider 1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/notacinephile/d3lCZjkY-devider201.png) And now, we're launching the second contest. Foreign cinema. We all watch films in our native languages and also films made in our second language. But the world of cinema is vast and there are numerous prolific film industries around the world. Naturally, we have hardly any intimacy with them. But it doesn't have to be so. We should also see films from all around the world.

I understand the reluctance

The language barrier is quite intimidating, but as someone who has seen films from every industry, let me assure you, once you start watching them, soon you won't notice the language difference at all! Cinema is a visual art form after all! True, reading the subtitle takes some practice, but consider this — There are gems in every industry, we're only doing us a great disservice by not trying them out! Now, what is foreign might be subjective. If you're from the US, anything made out of the US is foreign to you. But it's not that simple in other cases as people from all over the world have some basic understanding of English and watch Hollywood stuff. For example, I know for a fact, many south Asians think of European cinema when they think foreign, not Hollywood. The point is, you only know what is foreign to you, so it's up to you what you choose!
