Abstract

A close observation of Iran-Iraq war films in the Iranian society reveals that their genres have shifted in the course of the society’ s evolution. This questions the category-based principles of genre we have known so far in literature concerning film theory and necessitates a new conceptualization of genre, which can be realized with the aid of Niklas Luhmann’ s social systems theory. This theory abandons categorization in favor of functional differentiation and helps us observe Iranian war movies in their societal context. By taking a close look at the function of film in the society as one of the mass media, and through locating the concepts of memory, reality, identity and genre in Luhmann’ s theory, I shall find a pattern in the mentioned genre shift which is in turn punctuated by the Iranian society’ s different stages of evolution. To do so, I shall rely on a qualitative, analytical and critical method.
