Abstract

This research analyzes the exposition of trauma in Gabriel Osorio's 2016 short film Bear Story. The film reflects his historical experience under Augusto Pinochet's dictatorship in Chile and tells the story of an old Bear who creates a mechanical diorama depicting the loss of his family due to the dictatorship's oppression. This research uses a narrative and symbol analysis approach to investigate how collective and individual trauma is manifested through visual, narrative and symbolic elements in the film. Trauma is implied in the protagonist's emotional journey as he faces bitter memories of exile, torture and separation. Cinematic techniques such as the use of a soft color palette, melancholic music, and diorama mechanics as a metaphor for the process of memory and healing emphasize the psychological impact of trauma. The results of this study show that Bear stories are not just a form of artistic expression, but also serve as a medium of healing and historical memory for the victims and the wider community. In conclusion, Bear Story emphasizes film as a communicative tool to think trauma, memory, and resistance to oppression in related sociopolitical contexts.

Abstract

This article explores the role of imaginary friends in children’s emotional development in IF movie using qualitative approach grounded in psychoanalytic theory. The movie centers around Bea, a young girl who remembers her forgotten imaginary friends and embarks on a mission to find them a new home. Psychoanalytic theory of Freud and Winnicott suggests that imaginary friends act as transitional objects, helping children externalize and manage internal conflicts such as fear, anxiety, and unresolved emotions. Imaginary friends serve as mirrors for children’s evolving emotional needs, allowing them to project their inner struggles and engage in emotional regulation through play and imagination. Through an analysis centered around imaginary friends, this article explores how these friends help children navigate and process complex emotions. Bea’s forgotten imaginary friends represent parts of her emotional world that need resolution, acting as guides to help her confront and manage her deeper feelings. These friends provide a safe space for Bea to explore difficult emotions and internal conflicts, ultimately aiding in her emotional growth. In conclusion, this article illustrates how imaginary friends serve as crucial tools for children to express, manage, and navigate their internal worlds, helping them to work through unresolved emotions and fears.
