Summary/Abstract: Linguistic relativism originally comes from anthropology and linguistics. However, most of the interpretations of linguistic relativism has come a long way considering the beginning of the 20th century – when it was established. One of the reasons for that lies in its interdisciplinary potential. In various arts, we find many applications of the philosophy of linguistic relativism. In this paper, we write about the application of the Sapir–Whorf hypothesis in the American movie Arrival (2016) and the novel from Bosnian writer Enes Karić named Boje višnje (2016).
