The cinema is about other things than storytelling. What you remember from a good film — and let's only talk about good films — is not the story, but a particular and hopefully unique experience that is about atmosphere, ambience, performance, style, an emotional attitude, gestures, singular events, a particular audio-visual experience that does not rely on the story.
