Abstract

Spaces are the basic components of communal and cultural life. Beyond its sheer physicality, a space finds its existence in the communal living space through the meaning universe it creates. The conceptual framework of space and place, therefore, feature lexical distinctions; what distinguishes space or perhaps makes it superior is the fact that humans can interact with it. A place gains spacious characteristic via relations and meanings attributed to it. While the physical presence of a space is interpreted merely at the geometrical level, the meaning created in the space can be best revealed by scrutinizing individuals and relations which gain existence there. This is what depicts and personalizes the space. In this context, this study aims to examine how space relates with the cognitive aspect of cinema and in what way it contributes to the meaning creation in cinema as well as to reveal its connection with the ideology of the film.
