Abstract
The article provides an overview of predominant film styles in contemporary art cinema. The author treats film style as a concept that supersedes all other categories describing a film work, encompassing both the film techniques used and the narrative and plot structures. Based on this premise, the following styles are identified and discussed: realistic, formalist, minimalist, excessive, and slow cinema. Each of these styles is briefly characterized, and the proposed distinguishing features are used in a short analysis of films that serve as appropriately selected examples of each style. In doing so, the author demonstrates the analytical usefulness of the proposed typology in academic and educational practice.
