Abstract. In both corporate and higher education settings, films are utilized as teaching tools for cross-cultural and intercultural concepts. The best kinds of materials, in terms of developing foreign language learners' intercultural communicative competences, are thought to be authentic materials. Realistic materials infuse the classroom with reality and serve as a link between it and the outside world. Since authentic materials are those that were not produced or altered with language learners in mind, the majority of commonplace items in the language of instruction are considered authentic materials. Language learners can interact with the target culture's actual language, customs, and way of life by being exposed to authentic materials. One of the best ways to motivate students is to use authentic materials when teaching culture. This will also help them realize that there is a community of users who speak this language as their first language. Print, audio, and visual materials are examples of authentic materials. This essay explores the use of authentic materials to enhance sociolinguistic, pragmatic, sociocultural, and nonverbal communication skills, as well as provides examples of activities in this area.
