Interpretativno promatranje filma katastrofe XXI veka iz antropološke perspektive
Interpretive Examination of the 21st Century Disaster Film from an Anthropological Perspective

Summary/Abstract: The disaster movie has a clear genre formula and narrative conventions that have been stable for more than half a century and that manifest different social anxieties. However, during the second decade of the 21st century, a certain transfer of the conventions and clichés of the disaster film that are increasingly used in other genres is evident. In this shift and use of the imaginarium of destruction and satisfaction with scenes of cataclysms, it is possible to look for reflections of tensions and social changes that contemporary Western society is going through. The broadest context in which this change will be placed is the culture of fear, as a specific interpretive framework in which disasters, secular apocalyptic imaginary and end times narratives play the role of deconstruction, but also reconstruction, of current cultural-political orders and ideological matrices.
