The search for meaning is an inevitable part of what it means to be human. It is through this search that we learn how to better navigate life day by day. And that's what we explore through the work of Viktor Frankl and the Narrative Therapy Practice of externalizing problems. We show how these and other elements help unravel the Star Wars narrative as it's revealed in The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Throughout this discussion, Derrick also shares parts of his story, and why we all gravitate towards certain kinds of films.

  • Introduction (0:00)
  • Defining a “Derrick Movie”: Meaning and the Human Experience (1:30)
  • Revealing the Meaning of ‘Star Wars’ (5:46)
  • Externalizing Problems and Elemental Evil (18:33)
  • Derrick’s Search for Meaning (28:45)
  • Viktor Frankl and Finding Meaning in the Present (30:36)
  • Conclusion (38:38)

Stay up to date with our movie club, and see which films we'll cover in the future.
