I seem to remember another similar video that labeled film as sexist but I don’t remember the reason. Maybe it was related to Shirley. This piece is making misleading statements about the technology. Our (or human) eyes have the same limitations (except that we have dynamic “auto” exposure capability). The piece refers to dynamic range and then color fidelity by a “professor” that seems to know very little about the technology. And mentions one film as being superior. That well may be but should advances film characteristics be ignored as being worthy of mention. And history? What was B&W film built for? Note that before color it was a B&W world. Did the makers of B&W materials deliberately choose to invent such a system? This piece is inflammatory at best. Disappointing.
