Representation of auditory hallucinatory disorders in movies Safa Ghali

"All patients' symptoms have a meaning, which must be deciphered and explained" this is the essential idea that inspired Freud during years of research and later developed the new science called "Psychoanalysis". Cinema is one of the ways in which several filmmakers have treated hallucinatory sensory disorders through their films. A psychosensory disorder is therefore defined by paranormal sensory perceptions. And if this exaggeration of sensations manifests itself in our sound perception. Are these sounds real or imaginary? This book is based on notions in psychoanalysis to interpret these disorders through the cinematographic device. It seeks to know how this exaggeration of meaning is apprehended through the cinematographic image.
