karakteiistalähtöisestä

Karakteeristalähtöisestä is a Finnish term that translates to "character-driven" in English. It refers to a narrative or approach that prioritizes the development and exploration of characters over plot or action. In a character-driven story, the motivations, internal conflicts, growth, and relationships of the characters are central to the progression of the narrative. Events unfold as a consequence of who the characters are and how they react to situations, rather than being driven by external plot devices or a predetermined sequence of occurrences.

This approach is often employed in literature, film, and theater to create relatable and complex individuals that resonate with the audience. The focus is on understanding the inner workings of the characters, their past experiences, their beliefs, and their emotional journeys. Consequently, the plot may seem less important or even secondary, as the primary interest lies in observing how characters navigate their circumstances and evolve throughout the story. A character-driven piece aims to provide insight into human nature and the psychological complexities of individuals.
