Sports Films for Social Message Communication

Abstract

While film as a domain is usually not looked up to as an instrument for social development much, yet a major portion of films produced world over make honest efforts in sending out meaningful messages for the benefit of the society. A trend that is expected to grow in volume  in the near and distant future. Further, films with sports genre which are still far less in number than general films are rarely discussed in academic forums or research panels. This paper looks at how sports films as a separate genre can impact peoples’ life and thereby effect far-reaching changes in masses’ attitude over a period of time.
