It is difficult to define the concept of “poetics” in a decisive critical context, or to confine it to a specific rule or mold, because it is gelatinous without a fixed form, and humane like a stream cutting through a slope, volatile, changing and moving according to every movement or cinematic trend. Every group reads it, interprets it or employs it based on its aesthetic sense, intellectual starting point and spatiotemporal context, but all, even if they differ in the details, agree on its overwhelming aesthetics, the purity of its scenes and its closeness to the heart and conscience of man because it possesses the magical ability to infiltrate the taste of the audience without knocking on his door and settles in his depths to become part of his memory.
