"The study of metaphysics has almost 25 centuries of existence, when Aristotle wrote a book called “Metaphysical” about causation, form, matter and existence. According to the Greek philosopher, metaphysics isn’t just about transcendence, but in this list we will mainly focus on this subject: what’s beyond physical and material.
For that reason, it’s important to know the differences between transcendence and philosophical or poetic films. That changes everything.
The tangible is often challenged by artists, but it’s not always easy to put something transcendent and remote in culture products. Maybe Pink Floyd and John Donne are laughing about this, but, trust me, metaphysics is not for everyone. Some special touch is needed to reach the insensible. Cinema has this ability to wander into the absent and the unknown and these 15 films are great examples of that."
