Summary/Abstract: This article aims to emphasize the importance of the philosophical and axiological ethos behind the filmic narrative structures. If until now the Aristotelian paradigm has prevailed in film theory as the foundation of cinematographic narrative, through this article I aim to open a door to the deepening of the Non-Aristotelian paradigm, a narrative approach that serves as a model from the beginnings of cinema and which is complementary to the Aristotelian one. But, in order to understand how each paradigm works, it is necessary to first explain why they tend to differ. Because the Aristotelian paradigm mirrors the classicist and neo-classicist view of the world, while the Non-Aristotelian one mirrors the modernist vision.
