Abstract

The author considers the role film can play in shaping the identity of socially maladjusted youth. The argument is based on research carried out in a correctional facility for underage boys and basic theories and methods of creative resocialisation. The aim of creative resocialisation is to create a new identity in socially maladjusted people. This is done by activating the development of epistemic, intellectual and creative structures. The author also describes the problems and methods of film-therapy, as successfully applied by therapists in the USA in the 1980s and 1990s. In her article the author particularly focuses on the question of projection-identification, as this phenomenon is the deciding factor and activates in a natural way the whole process of film-therapy.
