The Truman Show | Brain and Consciousness, How the Brain Creates Reality and the Role of Awareness in Life

What is art if not a means of expressing who we are now, in the past, or aspire to be? Films are created by people, and reality is our brain's translation mirror; in fact, we all live in a film. Nowadays, it seems we all need films that outline and describe a different reality. In every film, we ask what gave birth to this behavior? What enables such a reality? One of the answers is the human brain, which creates reality, translates it, leads to action in the world, and changes it. The brain is what created the film, and it is the viewer.

Each film in this series will be preceded by a lecture focusing on an aspect related to the wonders of the brain.

We will discuss the brain's power to change and heal through the film The Fisher King, the question of human nature through the film My Heart Skipped a Beat. How consciousness creates reality will be seen in The Truman Show, and the power of language in understanding and constructing the world in the film Arrival.
