>The film must be shot where the narrative takes place. This one really stands out by exculding whole genres and not really adding anything interesting to work around.

It kind of protects against low budget sci-fi I guess, which could be a net good thing.

Under the rules you could attempt to shoot Resident Alien, but not Star Trek.

Which genres would that be?

One could also argue that certain genres simply won't ever work as an arthouse movie.

There is a lot of good cinema out there, it's just not at your fingertips. I too have become too lazy to look further than my nose's length.

There's even some good stuff in the big cinemas. Barbie was excellent for example.

I'm thinking you could shoot an awesome sci-fi thriller under these rules. Even one that includes space travel. Just don't have any of the narrative take place in space: have only one character off-planet and have them communicate via radio.

I don't think it's meant as a constraint to be worked around, but as a guardrail against being inauthentic.

And it excludes a lot less than its inspiration Dogme 95, which has as one rule "Genre movies are not acceptable."

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Lars Von Trier is objectively good cinema

Who would have thought an auteur would be a fully formed and flawed person where flaws may be as extreme as their talent.

It’s almost as if creativity is connected to emotions, ideology and experience or something.

What is happening? What is the difference between Dogma and Dogme? What is this site about?

"dogme" is the Danish, Norwegian, and French spelling of the word "dogma" https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/dogme

Oooh. That explains my friend named Mathilde. Nice. Thanks.
