ABSTRACT
The Cine-Eyes originally protested against literariness in cinema and against the frame with parallel intertitles. At the same time they stood for the frame as such, thinking that the frame has an existence outside its semantic significance, that its resolution comes within the confines of the actual frame of the screen. Hence plot, as a complex organisation of frames, as a kind of everyday motivation for the links between them, seemed to them to be external to the frame and noncinematic. Whereas plot is only a particular instance of construction. It is a construction of everyday semantic propositions. An individual human being usually constitutes the basis of a plot: an individual plot is usually based on the story of an individual human life or a single moment of that human life. But this is just the [Western] European concept of plot and just the current one.
