Abstract

This research focuses on analyzing the resilience of Ahmed ibn Fahdlan, the main character in The 13th Warrior (1999). Resilience refers to the ability of a person to effectively deal with challenges, stress, changes, or difficulties in life. In the film, Ahmed deals with a variety of problems that require different displays of resilience. This film is selected as the subject of this study to explore how resilience can be seen in fictional characters. The researcher adopts resilience theory proposed by Reivich and Shatte as the theoretical framework which offers seven skills in shaping resilience, including emotion regulation, impulse control, optimism, empathy, causal analysis, self-efficacy, and reaching out. Additionally, film theory, particularly focusing on mise-en-scene, is used to support the analysis of Ahmed as a resilient person. This study uses descriptive qualitative research approach. Based on the analysis of the significant events of the film, it is concluded that Ahmed shows resilience by successfully demonstrating all seven skills proposed by Reivich and Shatte. He effectively overcomes challenges and difficulties by applying all the seven skills. The findings contribute to the broader understanding of resilience within the context of fictional character in literary works, while is supported with film theory.
