The phrase foreign film is often used interchangeably with the phrase world cinema.
 Film may be propaganda, in whole or in part, such as the films made by Leni Riefenstahl in Nazi Germany, US war film trailers during World War II, or artistic films made under Stalin by Sergei Eisenstein
" In British English, a "film showing" happens at a cinema (never a "theatre", which is a different medium and place altogether)
