Cinematic Minds in the Making

The "Cinematic Minds in the Making" special issue, published in the Baltic Screen Media Review in 2023, investigates the subjective and intersubjective experiences of storytelling within the cinematic context. It explores how filmmakers and viewers engage with narratives, drawing on interdisciplinary approaches, including cognitive science and film theory. The issue examines how embodied knowledge, emotional responses, and narrative structures contribute to the creation and understanding of cinematic meaning.
