The two most asked questions we have received as part of our research into the application of Integral Theory to the cinema are:

What makes a movie integral?

The simplest answer is that it must reflect the Integral structure of consciousness in some way. According to Jean Gebser, the foundation of Integral consciousness is the drive to understand as many dimensions of reality as possible and integrate them into a meaningful whole, seeking a bigger picture. So following this definition, one way to define an Integral cinematic work would be works that attempt to integrate the multiple dimensions of its storyworld into a meaningful whole, culminating in a bigger picture.

Why are so many integral works science fiction or fantasy?

Gebser also points out that this drive toward integration includes the seeking to integrate both gross and subtle dimensions of reality by concretizing subtle dimensions like subjective experience and time. This often leads to moving image works that make subtle dimensions like thoughts, feelings and time a concrete reality, like how The Fountain (2006) concretizes interior states and Groundhog Day (1993) concretizes time. We tend to call works like this science fiction or fantasy because they are playing with forms outside the constructs of our current consensual reality.
