Summary/Abstract: Children’s film evinces all the elements of the processes of human individualisation. Children’s movies show key moments of the way worked up by or lying ahead for human consciousness. The issues of on-screen vision in contemporary children’s stories could be addressed in the light of receptive aesthetics, whose roots underlie various theoretical platforms (phenomenology, psychoanalyse, cognitive psychology, etc.). This methodology focuses on the meaning of the work, on the way in which the messages are generated, rather than on the analysis of the stylistic and aesthetic specifics of a movie; it does not search (as is the case) for the roots of a screen work in reproducing the fairy story, but rather accentuates the shaping of the meaning of the work itself, of the outcome of the process of its active perception and intercommunication with viewers.
