Abstract

The examination of existential crisis in film has gained increasing relevance as cinema provides a representational space capable of illuminating complex human struggles with meaning, suffering, and psychological disorientation. In this context, the present study aims to analyze the construction of existential crisis and psychological recovery experienced by the protagonist Otto Anderson in the 2022 film A Man Called Otto. Employing a qualitative approach through interpretive textual analysis, this study aims to analyze key scenes, dialogues, and character developments that depict Otto’s existential rupture and subsequent transformation. The analysis is guided by Irvin D. Yalom’s Existential Psychotherapy, which outlines the four fundamental existential conditions, and Viktor Frankl’s Logotherapy, which emphasizes meaning reconstruction through creative, experiential, and attitudinal values. Findings reveal that the film portrays Otto’s existential crisis through his encounters with loss, isolation, and diminished purpose, expressed in pervasive despair and withdrawal. The study further demonstrates that Otto’s psychological recovery unfolds through the gradual restoration of meaning facilitated by relational connectedness, prosocial engagement, and the capacity to transcend personal suffering. This research highlights the potential of cinematic narratives to serve as interpretive sites for examining meaning-making processes and existential transformation within contemporary human experience.

Abstract

Background: The low results of Indonesian students in the 2022 PISA mathematics literacy survey reflect a critical gap in students' mathematical abilities, which may hinder the nation's economic progress. An independent website, developed using Google Sites, was used to teach the material, customized to align with the curriculum and essential learning outcomes. Method: A mixed-methods approach was employed, encompassing both quantitative and qualitative methods. Data collection techniques included interviews with mathematics teachers for qualitative data and questionnaires distributed to students for quantitative data. Following observations, researchers gathered information through semi-structured interviews with both students and teachers. Data validation was conducted through triangulation of sources. Results: The average percentage achieved was 88.94%, categorized as very good. It can be concluded that mathematics learning using an independent website to support the independent curriculum produced excellent results. The study indicated that mathematics learning through an independent website significantly supported the implementation of the Independent Curriculum at Makassar State Forestry Vocational School. Conclusion: The independent website is considered to support student-centered learning objectives. Teachers acknowledged that the site allows students to learn independently, at their own pace and according to their needs. Thus, mathematics learning using an independent website significantly supports the implementation of the Independent Curriculum at Makassar State Forestry Vocational School.
