Conflict defined as an active disagreement between people who hold different beliefs or ideas. Conflict is the sensation of opposing or incompatible objectives, goals, beliefs, or actions. As a result, achieving both of these goals at the same time is impossible. This study investigates how fictional characters, specifically Harry Potter from J.K. Rowling's "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" film, can symbolize aspects of our daily lives. Using psychological conflict theory, the main character's utterances to other characters will be classified into the following groups. The methods and tactics for collecting data, also known as documentation and observation data collection, include watching the film, taking notes, doing a detailed analysis, and arranging the data. Kurt Lewin's psychological conflict theory will be used to the main character's conflict, the strategy and method of data analysis will be descriptive qualitative with secondary data. In Kurt Lewin's theory, researchers will use three types of conflict: Approach-Approach Conflict, Avoidance-Avoidance Conflict, and Approach-Avoidance Conflict. In his film, he employs conflict. Avoidance-Avoidance The principal character has the most friction with the other characters. In contrast to the avoidance-avoidance conflict, the approach-approach conflict might emerge when a person is faced with two desired options but can only receive one. in this study, researchers found the results of the film, namely finding three approach-approach conflicts, four approach-avoidance conflicts and four avoidance-avoidance conflicts. in addition, researchers also found problem solving that occurred in the conflict to contribute to the teaching process. researchers hope that this research can be an inspiration and motivation for teachers in using films as media.
