According to Matheus Massias on the Taste of Cinema website: 'The films discussed here were chosen with two things in mind: first, to comprise as many as possible from different countries and continents, in order to have a perspective either of a historical past and its present reverberations or to analyze how each national production deals or dealt with politics (in its very broad sense, encompassing, for instance, racial, gender, economic concerns) and how their policy toward filmmaking is or was; second, which is related to the first justification, the films selected range from 1925 to 2012, trying to encompass history in cinema and vice-versa. Therefore, the films aren't ranked; and of course, many films won't be here'.
