Abstract
This paper considers the following question: is it possible to philosophize through film? To this end, the paper is divided into three parts. Firstly, I take into consideration the analogy between film and literature. Secondly, I focus on the philosophical implications hidden behind the question mentioned above. Thirdly and finally, I point out what I believe are the prejudices of contemporary philosophy, or at least, of a certain part of it. Through this analysis, I aim to show some of the reasons for thinking that it is possible to philosophize through film
