FROM CONSCIOUSNESS TO UNCONSCIOUSNESS: A BIOPSYCHOSOCIAL STUDY OF QALA

The purpose of the ‘Qala' movie is to diminish the cultural cleavage of gender that predicates the superiority of one gender over the other. The articulation and repetition of notions of gender are culturally constructed and enacted through the formulaic association of things and thoughts with active social participation. These interactions are spooned with anxieties and sufferings that change the whole course of ‘Qala', an eponymous character's life upside down. Some questions that this article attempts to answer concerning the psychological condition of Qala are how performativity of male dominance blazes the spark of mental illness, how inferior complex and the issues of bad parenting add flame to the impairment, and how little incidents in her life assimilate negative emotions that lead to the breakdown of Qala resulting in her psychosis. The present article aims to trace the neurological nexus of thoughts by using Engel's ‘biopsychosocial model'. This study suggests that biological, psychological, and social conditions played a dominant role in shaping the psychosis of Qala.
