INTRODUCTION

A. Background

Internal conflict is a conflict that occurs in the heart or soul of a character

in a film. Conflict is very closely related to tension and opposition in fictional

stories, this is in accordance with what was stated by Gultom (2020) who argues

that conflict is tension or conflict in a fictional story or drama, namely a conflict

between two forces, a conflict within one character. , the conflict between the two

characters, and so on. According to Galtung (Dompas, 2021) Conflict is a social

system of actors with a discrepancy between what is stated by their goals.

According to Wellek and Warren (Lisnasari et al., 2017) states that conflict is

something dramatic, refers to a fight between two balanced forces, implying

action and response action.

Conflict will occur if there is no agreement or regular arrangement

between one desire and another. In literature, it means that conflict is a tension or

conflict in a fictional story or drama, namely a conflict between two forces, a

conflict within one character, a conflict between two characters, and so on

(Lisnasari et al., 2017). This usually happens in real life where most people often

avoid it, while in a literary work, especially a film, conflict is really needed and is

the most important part of building a plot so that the story in the film is more

interesting, it becomes something that is needed by the audience as a life lesson

and a necessity. soul(Veronika, 2022).

Conflict is divided into two, namely internal conflict and external conflict.

Internal conflict is an inner conflict related to the heart and mind in the soul of a

character or characters. Meanwhile, external conflicts are conflicts related to

conflicts or disputes with something outside themselves, namely conflicts with

the natural environment or the environment among humans (Veronika, 2022). In

this study, the researcher focused on the conflict under study, namely the internal

conflict of the main character, because the film to be studied tells about multiple

personalities so that internal conflict is closely related to the film. This is in

accordance with what was explained by Veronika (2022) that internal conflict is

closely related to personality because such conflicts are usually experienced by

humans with themselves. The type of conflict included in internal conflict is

conflict within a character in a film.

Internal conflict is a conflict that often occurs in humans caused by

prolonged disappointment. Someone who experiences conflict with himself is

related to lust, namely the conflict between good lust and conflict with bad lust.

Good lust is always willing to accept reality, because it is blessed by Allah SWT,

so that it becomes a positive potential in him that is able to encourage positive

actions and attitudes in dealing with various problems. Thus, the person is not

easily disappointed and will remain strong in facing the problems that befall him.

In contrast to a person who is defeated by his bad lust, that person will be easily

fragile and if not helped, that person will easily fall to the lowest point in his life.

This has been explained in the Qur'an surah Yusuf Verse 53 which reads:

ِ ‫ارةٌ ۢ بِالس ُّۤوْ ِء اِاَّل َما َر ِح َم َرب ۗ ِّْي اِ َّن َرب ِّْي َغفُوْ ٌر ر‬
‫َّح ْي‬ َ ‫َو َمٓا اُبَرُِّئ نَ ْف ِس ۚ ْي اِ َّن النَّ ْف‬
َ ‫س اَل َ َّم‬
It means:

And I do not (declare) myself free (from mistakes), because actually lust

always leads to evil, except (lust) which is blessed by my Lord. Verily, my Lord

is Forgiving, Most Merciful.

 In this verse, it is explained that every desire tends and is easy to be told

to do evil unless given grace and protection from Allah SWT. Thus, lust that is

blessed by Allah SWT encourages a person to act and be positive in dealing with

problems, including accepting the reality that is happening in his life. Included in

a film that will be examined by researchers which tells the story of the main

character who has more than one personality because it was caused by a past

trauma that gave rise to a split personality consisting of good and evil

personalities in the film.

Film is a live image which is also often called a movie. Films are

collectively referred to as cinema. Cinema itself comes from the word kinematics

or motion. The literal definition of film (cinema) is Cinemathographie which

comes from Cinema + tho = phytos (light) + graphie = grhap (writing = image =

image), so the meaning is painting motion with light (Veronika, 2022).

Meanwhile, according to Kridalaksana (Fatmawati, 2021) Film is thin, clear,

flexible, coated with sheets with an anti-halo layer, used for photographic

purposes, film is also a mass media tool that has auditory and visual (audio-

visual) properties and can reach large audiences. big. In general, films are divided

into 3 types, namely: documentary, fiction, and experimental. Narrative elements

and basic elements in film fiction are characters, conflicts, and goals. There are

many approaches to analyzing literary works in films, one of which is analyzing

characters who learn how to analyze internal conflicts in films (Gultom, 2020).

The film examined in this study is a split film. This film premiered in

2017 and was directed by M. Night Shyamalan. This film stars James McAvoy as

Kevin. This film tells about someone who has multiple personalities or

Dissociative Identity Disorder of up to 23 multiple personalities which will later

 appear as the 24th personality.

The reason the researcher chose the Split 2017 film was because he

wanted to review more about the conflict of the main character, Kevin, who has

multiple personality problems, according to (Afifah, 2022) multiple personalities

have deficiencies in memory, emotion and taste. According to (Alfiansyah &

Faridah, 2022) multiple personality is a mental illness which manifests as a

separation or discrepancy between thoughts, memory, environment, behavior,

and identity and one of the causes is childhood trauma. In this film, the main

character (Kevin) is often tortured by his mother because of his childish behavior.

Kevin grew up to be a weak human who shaped him into a man with multiple

personalities. Kevin has twenty-three personalities, each of which interacts with

one another. Thus the conflict of the main character Kevin in the 2017 film Split

needs to be further studied.

With this research, a film analysis was made of the conflicts contained in

the film. By choosing this title, it can add to the experience of many people,

especially researchers. As the times progress, the higher the technology as well as

a film.

finds in the main character of the film "Split" (2017).

 CHAPTER II

LITERATURE REVIEW

A. Previous Studies

A research will be more accurate if it uses several previous studies related

to the topic. As a reference and comparison of the research conducted, the authors

take several related previous studies as follows:

The first is Krisnawari (2016), Faculty of Letters and Culture, Udayana

University Vol 14.3” with the title “Main Character Conflict in The Curious Case

Of Benjamin Button” movie explaining the internal conflict experienced by the

main character, Benjamin Button. The results of the research explain that the

writer identifies the type of conflict by using Myers' theory (1992) and how the

main character overcomes the conflict using Deets and Stevenson's theory (1986).

The solution to resolve the conflict is by using avoidance, pacification,

competition, compromise, and creative integration.

The second is Lusiana (2017) Faculty of Cultural Sciences, Unud Vol

20.1” with the title “Conflict Analysis in the LUCY Film”. The results of the

study conclude the internal conflict of the main character named Lucy. The

solutions used to resolve conflicts in this film are avoidance strategies,

competition strategies, and creative integrated strategies.

The third, Aryawan et al. (2015), Faculty of Cultural Studies, Udayana

University Vol 17.2" with the title "Conflict Of The Main Character in Poe's The

Spectacle" explains the identification of conflict through Myers' theory (1992) in

a book entitled "A Laboratory Approach" namely internal conflict. Conflict

resolution through the theory of Deets and Stevenson (1986) in a book entitled

"Conflict Management Strategies" strategies used to find solutions to conflict

 resolution, namely compromise, parcification, and competition.

The similarity of previous studies is that they both discuss conflict, but the

differences in some of these studies lie in the formulation of the problem and

research approach. Meanwhile, the similarity of this research with the first and

third studies previously both discussed conflict with using the Deets and

Stevenson approach, and the difference between this research and the second and

third studies was the formulation of the problem and its approach.

B. Theoretical Framework

This study focuses on conflict analysis in split films. Therefore, a

theoretical framework is drawn here to have a deep understanding for this study.

1. Literary conflict

a. The Nature of Literature

According to Teeuw (Kustyarini, 2014) Literature in Indonesian comes

from Sanskrit which is a combination of the words sas which means to direct,

teach and give instructions. The word literature gets the ending tra which is

usually used to indicate a tool or means. Thus, literature means a tool for

teaching, a guide or teaching. Another word that is also taken from Sanskrit is the

word library which broadly means book.

Literature is a creative activity in art which is closely related to the reality

of life. Literary works appear with a combination of reality and the author's

creativity. Literary works are the result of human imagination that takes human

life as a source of inspiration.

According to Ratna (Waruwu et al., 2020), the nature of literary works is

fiction or what is more commonly called imagination. Imagination in literary

works is imagination based on reality, this is in line with Endraswara's opinion

(Muflikhah & Suhita, 2014) which states that literary works are expressions of

human life that cannot be separated from the roots of society. Literary work as a

portrait of life that contains a reflection of real life that gives rise to social

characteristics in human beings. Literary works are created from problems in

society that are interesting to put into creative and imaginative writing. Although

in essence literary works are fiction, literary works are constructed on the basis of

reality.

According to Saryono (Nurachmana et al., 2020) literature is not just an

artifact (inanimate object), but literature is a living being. As a living figure,

literature develops dynamically to accompany other figures, such as politics,

economics, art and culture. Literature is considered capable of being a guide to

the path of truth because good literature is literature that is written with honesty,

clarity, sincerity, wisdom, and the nobility of human conscience. Good literature

is able to remind, awaken, and return people to the right path, namely the path of

truth in an effort to fulfill their life's tasks. According to Luxemburg (Suci

Purnama Cahyani, R. Yudi Permadi, 2018) Literature can be viewed as a social

phenomenon. This is because literature was written in a certain period of time

which is directly related to the norms and customs of that era and the author of

literature is part of a society or positions himself as a member of that society.

According to Sugihastuti's view (Nurfadilla et al., 2020) literary works are

the media used by authors to convey their ideas and experiences. Literary works

can also reflect the author's views on various problems observed in his

environment.

Based on some of these opinions, it can be concluded that a literary work

is a work of art that describes the reality of life as outlined in creative writing to

convey the author's ideas. Therefore, literary works are often used as a medium to

convey the experiences of other people and the experiences of the author himself.

b. Conflict

According to Sayuti (Zulaika, 2021) conflict is part of a story that

originates from life. Therefore, readers can be emotionally involved in what

happens in the story. Readers as story connoisseurs do not just read, but are able

to deeply feel each story and relate it to the events that occur around them.

Wellek and Warren (Susilawati et al., 2022) state that conflict is

something dramatic, referring to a fight between two balanced forces, implying

action and reciprocal action. Conflict will occur if there is no agreement or

regular arrangement between one desire and another. Conflict can also occur if

there is no agreement between one ego and another. This usually happens in real

life which most people often avoid. However, in the world of literature, conflict

is really needed and can even be said to be important in order to support the

contents of the story. If there is no conflict in a story, then it is certain that the

story will not live and attract readers to read it because there are no events that

can be felt. It's not even an exaggeration if writing literary works is building and

developing conflicts because the more and more interesting the conflicts that

occur, the more interesting the story will be to read.

Events in a literary work are closely related to conflict. Events can create

conflict and conflict can trigger other events. The form of events in a story can be

physical or mental events. According to Nurgiyantoro (Amna, 2019) physical

events involve physical activity, there is interaction between story characters and

characters outside of themselves, other characters or the environment. An inner

event is something that happens in the mind, heart, of a character. Based on this

description it can be seen that conflict can occur in all aspects of human life.

Pruitt and Rubin (Gaspar et al., 2018) define conflict as a perception of

differences in interests (perceived divergence of interest), or a belief that the

aspirations of conflicting parties cannot meet common ground. Interests in

question are people's feelings about what they really want, where these feelings

tend to be central in people's thoughts and actions which form the core of many

of their attitudes, goals and intentions.

The definition of conflict above can be concluded that conflict is a

condition resulting from a conflict between wills, values or goals to be achieved

which causes an uncomfortable condition both within individuals and between

groups. In this conflict over land, there was conflict between groups and groups,

namely between communities.

Sayuti (Lisnasari et al., 2017) divides conflict into three types. First, the

conflict within a person (character). This conflict is often referred to as

psychological conflict or psychological conflict. This type of conflict usually

occurs in the form of a character's struggle against himself, so that he can

overcome and determine what he will do. Second, the conflict between people or

a person and society. This type of conflict is often referred to as social conflict or

social conflict. Conflicts like this usually occur between characters and their

surroundings. This conflict arises from individual attitudes towards the social

environment regarding various problems that occur in society. Third, the conflict

between humans and nature. Conflicts like this are often referred to as physical or

element conflicts or natural conflicts. This type of conflict usually occurs when a

character cannot master and/or utilize and cultivate the natural surroundings as
they should. If the relationship between humans and nature is not harmonious,

disharmony will occur which can cause conflict.

The three types of conflict above can be grouped into two groups of types

of conflict, namely external conflict and internal conflict (Amna, 2019). External

conflict is a conflict that occurs between a character and something outside

himself. Thus it can be said that external conflict includes two categories of

conflict, namely conflict between social humans (social conflict) and conflict

between humans and nature (physical or element conflict). Internal conflict is a

conflict that occurs in the heart or soul of a character in a story. Conflicts like this

are usually experienced by humans with themselves. The type of conflict

included in internal conflict is conflict within a character (psychological conflict).

Conflicts like the one above can occur simultaneously because they are closely

related to humans who are called characters in literary works.

Events in a literary work are closely related to conflict. Events can create

conflict and conflict can trigger other events. The form of events in a story can be

physical or mental events. Physical events involve physical activity, interactions

between story characters and characters outside themselves, other characters or

the environment. Inner events are something that happens in the mind, heart, of a

character (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 123-124) Sayuti (2000: 42-43) divides conflict

into three types.

a. Conflict Within a Person (Character)

This conflict is often referred to as psychological conflict or

psychological conflict. This type of conflict usually occurs in the form of a

character's struggle against himself, so that he can overcome and determine what

he will do.
b. Conflict between people or a person and society.

This type of conflict is often referred to as social conflict or social

conflict. Conflicts like this usually occur between characters and their

surroundings. This conflict arises from individual attitudes towards the social

environment regarding various problems that occur in society.

c. Conflict between man and nature.

Conflicts like this are often referred to as physical or element conflicts or

natural conflicts. This type of conflict usually occurs when a character cannot

master and/or utilize and cultivate the natural surroundings as they should. If the

relationship between humans and nature is not harmonious, disharmony will

occur which can cause conflict.

Internal conflict is a conflict that occurs in the heart or soul of a character

in a story. Conflicts like this are usually experienced by humans with themselves.

The type of conflict included in internal conflict is conflict within a character

(psychological conflict). Conflicts like the one above can occur simultaneously

because they are closely related to humans who are called figures in literary

works (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124). External conflict is a conflict that occurs

between a character and something outside himself. Thus it can be said that

external conflict includes two categories of conflict, namely conflict between

social humans (social conflict) and conflict between humans and nature (physical

or element conflict).

1. Internal conflict or mental conflict or psychological conflict. Conflicts

that occur in the heart, soul of a character or the characters in the story. Stanton
internal conflict or psychological conflict is a conflict that occurs in the heart,

soul of a character in a story. It is a conflict that humans experience with

themselves, it is more an internal problem of a human being. Inner conflict or

internal conflict is anything that has resistance that causes a discrepancy between

inner ideals and reality. So, inner conflict is a conflict experienced by humans by

themselves and is more focused on internal human problems (Nurgiyantoro,

2013: 124). Usually occurs due to conflict between two desires, beliefs, different

choices, expectations and others.

Inner conflict is closely related to personality, someone who experiences

inner conflict or upheaval will affect their behavior in the future. This inner

conflict is a conflict that humans experience with themselves and only themselves

can overcome and determine the steps to be taken to resolve the inner conflict.

Every work of fiction has at least an internal conflict that exists through the

desire of a character or the desire of two characters with their environment. In

this study, the nature of inner conflict is used as an initial foundation for

understanding the theory of forms of inner conflict, causes of inner conflict, and

resolution of inner conflict. From the above theory it can be concluded that inner

conflict is conflict or resistance that occurs in one's heart, mind and soul caused

by two conflicting desires to control oneself to the point of influencing behavior.

This resistance is caused by a discrepancy between inner desire and reality. Inner

conflict is closely related to personality, because it will affect a person's behavior

in the future.

a. Heartache is a combination of feelings of hatred and deep feelings of

revenge for someone. A person may become hurt if someone intentionally or

unintentionally insults, is rude, or is impertinent towards him. Individuals will be

hurt at every action or insinuation that looks down on, ridicules or does not

respect themselves (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

b. Disappointment is a different hope and reality. What will be done is

sincerity, introspection (correcting from one's own actions), and continuing to try

to get what we want (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

c. Anger is another type of emotion experienced by children as well as adults.

Someone becomes angry when they feel offended, hurt or irritated by the

behavior of other people (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

d. Indecision is a feeling of not being fixed, doubtful, feeling worried and

anxious (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

e. Sadness or sadness is a human feeling that expresses disappointment or

frustration with someone or something (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

f. Fear According to Watson (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124), it is the insecurity

factor that plays an important role in bringing about fear.

g. Regret Regret is a feeling that describes a person's emotional reaction to his

past actions. These emotional reactions can take the form of sadness, shame,

depression, annoyance, and Muis' guilt (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

h. Resentment Resentment is an unpleasant feeling about something.

Feelings of annoyance if not resolved immediately will cause hatred, resentment,

and can even create stress (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

i. Anxiety Anxiety or anxiety is an emotional response to individual

subjective experiences that have their own strengths and are difficult to observe

directly. A person is said to experience anxiety if he feels worried and unsure, at

least there is a feeling that is a signal or suspicion or a feeling of confusion

related to a disaster or an unpleasant event. Muis (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

 j. Jealousy is an emotion and usually refers to negative thoughts and feelings

of being threatened, afraid, and worried about losing something that someone

values, especially referring to human relationships. Jealousy is often a

combination of emotions shown such as anger, hatred, lack, helplessness and

overflowing Muis (Nurgiyantoro, 2013: 124).

2. Film Analysis

a. Definition of film

Film is a portrait or record of reality that grows and develops in society

and then projects it onto the screen. Law number 33 of 2009 concerning film in

chapter 1 article 1 states, what is meant by film is a work of cultural art which is a

social institution and mass communication media made based on

cinematographic principles with or without sound and can be demonstrated

(Indratmo, 2022).

Film is a medium of mass communication. said to be a mass

communication media, because it is a form of communication that uses channels

(media) in connecting communicators and communicants en masse, in the sense

that there are many of them, spread everywhere, the audience is heterogeneous

and anonymous, and has certain effects. Moving images (films) are the dominant

form of visual mass communication, in this part of the world more than hundreds

of millions of people watch movies in theatres, television films and laser video

films every week. Film is a medium of mass communication from a hearing point

of view, where films send messages or signals called symbols. Symbolic

communication can be in the form of images contained in films. The picture in

the film shows the contents of the message implied in every scene in the film to

convey meaning and understanding to the audience or the public. In general, film
is seen as a separate medium and film is a means of expressing the creativity of

several branches of art at once and its products can be accepted and sought after

like works of art.

According to Effendi (Ghassani & Nugroho, 2019) film is defined as a

product of culture and a means of artistic expression. Film as mass

communication is a combination of various technologies such as photography

and sound recording, art, both visual arts and theatrical arts, literature and

architecture, and music.

Effendy (Sugianto et al., 2017) stated that film techniques, both the

equipment and the settings, have succeeded in displaying images that are closer

to reality. In a dark atmosphere in the cinema, the audience witnesses a story that

seems to be really happening in front of them.

The conclusion according to experts is that film is a complex social,

psychological and aesthetic phenomenon which is a document consisting of

stories and images accompanied by words and music. So that the film is a multi-

dimensional and complex production. The presence of film in the midst of human

life is now increasingly important and on par with other media.

b. Film as a literary work

Film literary works are moving images in which there are scenes that

describe a storyline. According to Effendy (Putri, 2022) film is an audio-visual

communication medium to convey a message to a group of people who gather in

a certain place.

Hill (Akbar, 2022) states that a literary work is a complex structure, so to

understand it requires analysis, namely a breakdown of its elements. The

interpretation of a literary work aims to clarify its meaning. In addition, Pradopo

 (Akbar, 2022) reveals that literary analysis is carried out to fully understand the

meaning of literary works. Furthermore, Endraswara (Akbar, 2022) suggests that

literary research can function for the advancement of literature itself and interests

outside literature. The interest for literature is to improve the quality of literary

creativity. Meanwhile, non-literary interests relate to aspects outside of literature,

such as religion, philosophy, morals, and so on, which are strongly influenced by

the content of literature as a document of the times. So that literary research has

pragmatic value that will benefit other relevant sciences. Literary research is not

only purely scientific or academic in nature, but must also be able to provide

enlightenment for the development, selection, dissemination of literature and

explain matters related to it. So the function of literary research will be a medium

for readers to understand the contents of the story and the meaning in the text

written by the author.

According to Mukarovsky and Felik Vodicka (Ratnasari, 2018) literary

work is a process of communication, semiotic facts, consisting of signs,

structures, and artistic values, so that to analyze it requires structural and semiotic

methods. Structuralist is basically a way of thinking about something related to

the responses and descriptions of structures. Teeuw (Ratnasari, 2018) suggests

that structural analysis aims to dismantle and describe as carefully, thoroughly, in

as much detail, and as deeply as possible the interrelationships and interweaving

of all elements and aspects of a literary work which together produce an overall

meaning.

C. Synopsis of Split

The film Split tells the story of a young man named Kevin Wendell

Crumb, played by James McAvoy. Kevin was diagnosed by his psychiatrist as

having Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) and having 23 multiple personalities.

Even though he was diagnosed with 23 multiple personalities, there were only a

few personalities that stood out, namely Kevin (original personality), Dennis

(smart and likes everything clean and tidy, Particia (a motherly woman), Hedwig

(a 9 year old boy who is nosy , Jade (a woman with diabetes), Orwell (a man with

knowledge of history, Mr. Pritchard (professor of film).

Kevin has many personalities due to the abuse his mother used to abuse

him when he was little. Thanks to the help of therapy from a psychiatrist, Kevin's

23 personalities were initially able to walk in balance. Until one day, Kevin's

three personalities, namely Dennis, Patricia, and Hedwig, planned something

terrible and then formed a team within Kevin and named The Horde. The Horde

then launched their action by kidnapping three girls, namely Claire (Jessica Sula)

and Marcia (Haley Lu Richardson) and Cassie (Anya Taylor-Joy). These three

girls were then placed in a closed room similar to a basement.

The three girls then realize that Kevin has multiple personalities because

his character often changes suddenly. The Horde's purpose in kidnapping the

three girls was to revive Kevin's 24th personality, The Beast. After The Beast

appears, these three girls will be sacrificed because The Best is a cannibal.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

A. Research Method

The method used in this research is descriptive qualitative method.

Qualitative methods are always descriptive, meaning that the data analyzed is in

the form of descriptions of phenomena, not in the form of numbers or coefficients

about variables. The qualitative descriptive method functions to view and

describe the data contained in the film Split (2017)

B. Source Of Data

a. Main data

In this study, data was taken from the film Split 2017. The film is the main

source in knowing the internal conflicts of the main characters of the film.

b. Secondary data

Taking from several previous studies related to the film under study, in addition

to several journals and other references.

C. Instruments Of The Research

In collecting data, researchers used the method of watching movies and

notebooks. Note taking is a system of recording information that requires

researchers to use a notebook.

D. Procedures Of Collecting Data

Procedurs for collecting data

in collecting data, the authors divide four procedures:

1. The researcher will watch and understand movies.

2. The researcher will identify statements related to my problem statement.

3. The researcher will qualify data from film.

 4. The researcher will all data.

E. Techniques Of Analyzing Data

In this research, the writer uses conflict theory. According to Myers

(1992: 268), internal conflict is one of the basic confrontations faced by the main

character in a literary work, and also has an impact on the character's decisions as

a result of the conflict. The main character is forced to face two or more choices

and must choose one of them in their mind. Usually, internal conflict concerns

what the main character wants, what the main character needs, what the main

character thinks, and what the main character really wants. to analyze the conflict

in the film "split" by syahmalan. Then the writer analyzes the film based on the

script and images in each scene of the film.
