In 1910 Bragalia a film maker experimented with chronophotography and in 1911 exhibited his results. He produced his own manifesto "The Futurist Photodynamism" of 1913 and in September 1916 launched his "Manifesto Of Futurist Cinema" producing a full length film Perfido Incanto. Theatrical performances also were staged which foreshawdowed in their shock and compulsive nonsense the later activity of the Dadaists. Futurism became an international movement and its ideas had spread to most major cities before the outbreak of war in 1918.
