Theme: Meta-Fiction

Meta-Fiction refers to a body of works where the story breaks out beyond the limits of the medium in which it is takes place. Meta-Fiction is a term that comes from literature and originally refers to characters on the printed page. This author has coined the term Meta-Film to refer to stories that break outside the confines of a film. There are lesser known examples that do the same with television and comic-books.

Meta-Fiction and Meta-Film can refer to stories where variously:-

– Characters emerge from or enter into books, films or tv screens

– Where the author of the work becomes a character inside the narrative or we are able to step outside of the story we are watching and be privy to the process as it is being written or filmed

– Where characters become aware that they are fictional or are operating along the lines of genre cliches

– Where the fourth wall is broken in some way and characters address the screen directly
