Movie sphere

In the world of Spira in Final Fantasy X and X-2, Movie Spheres are collections of images, sounds and thoughts of people that are recorded for later viewing. They are created from the water, infused with pyreflies, from the Macalania Woods. During their pilgrimage, Braska, Jecht and Auron left several spheres scattered across Spira for their loved ones to one day find. In the Luca Sphere Theatre, movie and music spheres can be purchased and then viewed or listened to. In modern Spira, a Sphere Camera is a common item to use when recording a sphere, however some spheres have a built-in mechanism for filming, notably when Yuna records her final message to her friends at Mi'ihen.

During the Eternal Calm, Movie Spheres became an important part of the lives of many Spirans. Sphere Hunting became a popular pasttime and groups like the Youth League and New Yevon sought spheres documenting Spira's history. Freelance groups such as the Gullwings and the LeBlanc Syndicate located spheres for pleasure or profit.

The following is a list of all the Movie Spheres found in both games and what they contain.
