Abstract

The word “film” is not something foreign anymore and it is used as a medium that pours the reality of life into a big screen. With existential crisis and finding the meaning of life as the context, this paper will use Pixar’s Soul as the study case and using the method of textual analysis to analyze the movie and Soren’s theory from Hicks’ book focuses on the four meanings in life along with theories of existence.
