Abstract

Narratives are the tool of human beings to fight death. The fate of Scheherazade, who tells a story every night in order not to succumb to death, is the fate of human beings. Man has begun to tell about death from the moment he realizes that he is mortal. Walter Benjamin says that the storyteller has taken his authority from the dead. It is a need to tell, to share the experience. The human being is a storytelling entity that also needs stories. Myths and tales explained the world to human beings in periods when rational reason was not used and science was not yet developed. Legends and tales are the first teachers of humanity, and in the following ages, human beings continued to create new narratives with new tools. By the XX century, humanity meets with a new storytelling tool. Cinema has the ability to be a very important tool in people's communication with each other, nature and society.
