The appearance of "Essays" was a qualitatively new step in the development of domestic film studies. A wide range of scientists belonging to different schools and directions in film studies took part in the work. The authors did not set themselves the goal of consistently covering all stages of the formation and development of cinematography on the territory of Ukraine. But, without a doubt, the compilers and authors managed to focus on key moments, trace the most important regularities of the filmmaking process. Issues that have remained on the margins of the historical science of cinema have come into focus. Separate chapters are devoted to both local phenomena and entire historical stages, and the authors mostly build their research on a solid theoretical foundation.

Bergman – "Snake's Egg", "Autumn Sonata", "Fanny and Alexander" (Sweden); A. Kurosawa - "Seven Samurai", "Shadow of the Warrior", "Wound" (Japan); A. Tarkovsky - "Andrii Rublev", "Solyarke", "Stalker", "Nostalgia" (Russia).
