Fred Ott's Sneeze, the first film made in Edison's Kinetograph in 1893 and noted for the first closeup, became the first film officially copyrighted on January 7

I think that Sneeze was just one scene long. I am not sure that's what the question is asking, I think he wants to know about a feature length movie, not just when the technology was first invented and used to film a motion picture.
I have often heard that it was the silent film Birth of a Nation, 1915 but have found much earlier ones listed on the internet that had French titles, and came from Paris. Wiki has a good informative page on "silent film". Check there for details.

The first stop-animation can be credited to Albert E. Smith and J. Stuart Blackton for The Humpty Dumpty Circus (1898)... this is fairly relative to the first film.
Roundhay Garden Scene, the world's first motion picture by Louis Le Prince, 1888
