A film which is not continuous. In other words, there are breaks, gaps or other interruptions in the film. For example, if the material was conductive, a discontinuous film of that material would not conduct because of the breaks in the film.

A discontinuity is where a layer of rock suddenly and abruptly stops without pinching out- typically its where a fault has broken up the rock and moved the other part of the layer to a different depth or position.

Also Unconformity: where a vertical break in the geologic record exists (beds have been eroded away).
