From the Paper:

"The realm of arts as a reflection of life and society is perhaps the most important aspect that literature and similar form of arts illustrate. The celebration or criticism of human experience, particularly of human sorrow and suffering, is depicted effectively through the prose and film medium, which are two expressive forms of art. Human suffering and sorrow is depicted through different situations, and is commonly found in the depiction of conflict between the society and individual. Conflict within the society arises because of the differences that exist within each member of the society."
