Film means something that is created by men. It is kind of theatre in the TV – box. Some cannot live without TV - soap operas, cartoons, etc. Behind all this is a great history of film industry and its development. Actors, producers, Hollywood, etc. is part of it. The film making is a long and time consuming process and, as a result, a film comes out. Countries work on film translation for their people to understand.

How is it that in source language actors say one thing and in the target language subtitles express absolutely another thing but still conveys the same idea?

It gives a general insight and therefore is advisable for reading it not only by those who study some kind of translation but also by any other students.
