Abstract

Everyone must experience grief in life, for instance being abandoned by family, friends, partners, and even pets. Each individual who experiences grief has different responses in dealing with the grief. This happens to the main character of A Man Called Otto (2022) movie, Otto, who is abandoned by his beloved wife who becomes an influential person in his life. This study aims to determine how Otto responds to the grief he experiences and what language Otto expresses and conveys his grief responses using languages of grief theory by Corless et al. The theory includes modes of expression and types of language which are interconnected each other. This study used a descriptive qualitative method to analyze the movie with primary and secondary data. The primary data was taken from A Man Called Otto (2022) movie and its script.
