Abstract

On the Time and Reality of Film Spaces: The Star Wars Example

ABSTRACT

Cinema is a medium of communication. The story created by this medium of communication establishes a relationship of time and space with the viewer. In this relationship the reality of the story is represented through the time of space. The story is the location where the story was fictionalized and the time that passed in this space is the reality of the film. The space defines the reality of time and humans together. The space, which in essence assumes the aim of sheltering humans, separates from the essence at this point and is transformed into a medium on the path to creating reality. The space on the film screen is a fictional space set forth to create reality. This article assesses the medium that space is based on in the Star Wars films and questions how much the film relates to the messages it wants to convey. At the essence of the study is the seeking of the reality revealed with the images about time of the spaces produced in the cinema.
