Auguste e Louis Lumière

The Profile

French inventors and filmmakers who developed the cinematograph and made pioneering short films beginning in 1895.

They developed the cinematograph, presented films publicly starting December 28, 1895, and produced short actuality films such as "Workers Leaving the Lumière Factory" (approx. 50 seconds) and "The Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat".

The available review treats "L'uscita Dalle Fabbriche Lumière" as the first film in cinema history. It highlights the film's roughly 50-second duration and the first public screening on December 28, 1895 in Paris. The review praises the Lumière brothers as the originators of cinema and places their work as the starting point for later filmmakers.
