About

Decalogue is Watershed’s year-long series of events reflecting on cinema from 2000-09. Every month we select a film from each year which stands out as in some way redefining the second century of cinema.

The first decade of the first century of cinema (1900-09) was a heady time of experimentation and innovation for the new medium of film. A Trip to The Moon (1902), The True Story of the Kelly Gang (1906) and The Great Train Robbery (1903) are just some of the films that helped shape the future language of cinema.

As we finish the first decade of the second century of cinema (2000-09), we are interested in whether we can identify films that were innovative, radical and visionary – in other words, films that will help to redefine a new century of cinema.

Get involved by watching and reading about our reasons behind choosing our Decalogue Films & Events, having your say by commenting in The Soapbox and messaging us on Twitter @wshed using #decalogue.

Do you have a personal Movie Memory that defined the decade for you? However random or simple the story, we want to know. Share yours with us and we’ll enter you into a monthly draw to win special Decalogue prizes.
