ANAGNOSIS
18. ACTIVITY 3
1 . The film “All the Bright Places” broadly fits Aristotle’s framework. It relates to the following:
• It has one issue that need to resolve (To find yourself when you are lost)
• Change of Fortune (Violet, a social butterfly began to isolate herself annd Theodore, a antisocial
began to be a happy go lucky guy until the change of events made them realize how it is important to
be brave.)
• The plot begins from misery to satisfaction and contentment
• Theodore, the protagonist, is a symbol of hope for Violet. He changed Violet in a good way.
• Various setting are included in the film. The protagonists wandered a lot, in a sense that they can
find themselves in the middle of wandering. There is a consistency of plot as well, Violet, whose
standing on the ledge in the beginning, thinking if she should end her life, ends her on a same place
but with the hope and faith that Theodore left him.
• The actions are presented with the people that revolves in the story.
• A storyline must have something to be surprised, it is quite predictable that it will end with one of
them dying.
19. 2. All categories are highlighted in the film.
3. Yes, Analyzing "All the Bright Places" through Aristotle's catharsis theory, focusing on pity and fear,
requires considering the Philippines' cultural context. The film's impact on catharsis varies, but its
universal themes, like mental health struggles, resonate widely. In the Philippines, where mental health
awareness grows but still faces stigma, the movie can evoke strong pity and fear. Characters dealing
with mental health issues may resonate with viewers who've experienced similar challenges, fostering
empathy. Emotional triggers like peripety and recognition, seen through the characters' struggles,
intensify emotional responses, providing a cathartic experience. A real-life example is the rising
discourse on mental health in the Philippines, where the film could spark conversations and awareness.
If the movie resonates with those who've faced similar challenges, it may inspire positive shifts in
attitudes toward mental health. This could lead to improved support systems, reduced stigma, and a
collective effort to address mental health openly. In conclusion, while the impact of "All the Bright
Places" on catharsis in the Philippines depends on various factors, its exploration of mental health and
relatable characters can contribute to fostering empathy, understanding, and communication on this
crucial societal concern.
