Summary/Abstract: Cinema as the seventh art, shows movement, situation and the flow. Cinema as a form of representation and transfer of these actions, requires creativity and thinking. Interdisciplinary analysis is carried out to understand films as movements and time presentation. The questions that the film wants to convey to the audience through the situation, the characters and the events, and the questions that it asks to think about philosophy. Nihilism as a word means nothing; it represents a way of thinking that there are no values, beliefs and meanings without the world as it is. Albert Camus, one of the most important names of existential thinking, discusses whether life is worth living in The Myth of Sisyphus. He points out the disparity between the invidual and the world in which it lives.
