Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to concretely present the debate between psychoanalysis and schizoanalysis through the series The Prisoner (Nick Hurran, 2009). The focus of this discussion is to understand whether the desire craves oppression and becomes its accomplice or, on the contrary, rebels against the established order and is surrounded on all sides. Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, who argue that the psychoanalytic movement, which is the most important discovery, constantly distorts unconscious desire by trying to reduce it to family-specific and social norms of the dominant order, envision schizoanalysis as a political struggle in every aspect of production. In this context, The Prisoner (2009), which constructs the things produced by desire, namely a dream, a love practice, a concrete utopia, on a social level, is analysed in the axis of schizoanalysis approach through Delezuian concepts.
