Dogme 95
Dogme 95 was an avant-garde filmmaking movement started in 1995 by the Danish directors Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg, who created the "Dogme 95 Manifesto" and the "Vow of Chastity" (Danish: kyskhedsløfter). These were rules to create filmmaking based on the traditional values of story, acting, and theme, and excluding the use of elaborate special effects or technology. It was an attempt to take back power for the director as artist, as opposed to the studio. They were later joined by fellow Danish directors Kristian Levring and Søren Kragh-Jacobsen, forming the Dogme 95 Collective or the Dogme Brethren. Dogme (pronounced [ˈd̥ɒwmə]) is the Danish word for dogma.
History
Lars von Trier and Thomas Vinterberg wrote and co-signed the manifesto and its companion "vows". Vinterberg said that they wrote the pieces in 45 minutes. The manifesto initially mimics the wording of François Truffaut's 1954 essay "Une certaine tendance du cinéma français" in Cahiers du cinéma.
They announced the Dogme movement on March 13, 1995 in Paris, at Le cinéma vers son deuxième siècle conference. The cinema world had gathered to celebrate the first century of motion pictures and contemplate the uncertain future of commercial cinema. Called upon to speak about the future of film, Lars von Trier showered a bemused audience with red pamphlets announcing "Dogme 95".

Unkept Promises
by: DgmUn-spoken words, un-kept promises
This is what a man should do in his life
Un-broken alliance, still on and on and on
We just don't know, time after time
Lost in this world
I'll find a reason why
To live in perfect harmony with you my shining star, side by side
Together we will fight
Together we'll survive
To millions battle just to testify our love
Who will be the next today
To forget the lesson learned in wasted years long long time ago
It's been a shame, it's been so fake
To be prisoners of ourself
We just don't know, time after time
Lost in this world
Story will tell, who will be wise
And who will survive
Caught in this world
Caught through this lies
