Summary/Abstract: Raw materials of films are visible and audible images. These images belong to a space-time of which we are accustomed and familiar. Cinematic devices such as camera movement and editing, make this spacetime that we know fluid, and thus open the way for filmic thinking. However the screen world, partly rescued from the physical boundaries by certain cinematic instruments, still belongs to this place at the level of representation. Since the visible universe of cinema is based on representation. It is a system of representation that is culturally, ideologically or, in the most general sense, a worldly motivated representation. It is almost impossible to exceed this representation within the visible limits of the screen. Therefore, when it is necessary to think about a non-representational phenomenon for different reasons, the invisibility of the off-screen may be used. Indeed, some directors, who seek another meaning, tried this. They tried to make the places where the photographical reality cannot enter but the thought can enter conceivable by the possibilities of invisible space-time.
