...the domain of cinematography* is the domain of the unsayable.

Robert Bresson
from an interview with Le Monde, March 14th, 1967

*..."cinematography" for Bresson has the special meaning of creative filmmaking which thoroughly exploits the nature of film as such. It should not be confused with the work of a cameraman.
