Dogma 25 – Vow of Chastity (2025) (dogma25.dk)

Interesting that they only have one rule in common with the predecessor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dogme_95

>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.

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

My eyes are bleeding reading this CSS

Nothing like rules for spurring creativity. Waiting for the manual next.

Pretentious, pompous trash.

I wonder if they would accept a CGI movie entirely set within a computer, nothing in the rules seem to prohibit it :).

I feel like people are reading this as "this is how the under signers think all movies should be made, and we are judging movies not made this way as a moral failing", when I think a better reading would be "as directors/film makers/story tellers, this is how we think we can maximize our own creativity and joy when we make movies".

So this is my art degree coming out, but I feel like invoking the name of Dogma 95 and the "vow of chastity" without what appears to be any of the original people involved or blessing feels a little lame, especially when the actual rules are pretty different from the original. At least, I don't see any indication of like a real personal connection to the original.

I feel like they probably should have come up with a different name and just noted the connection in the manifesto

I maybe shouldn't judge their ideas about film by their choice of illegible background and text colors, but I do.
