Abstract
Avatar filmi, sanal / gerçek beden düalizminin temsilinin önemli bir örneğidir ve sanal kimlikler ve doğal/sanal ikili karşıt konumu fenomenolojik bir yaklaşım kullanarak konunun ele alınmasına olanak sağlamaktadır. Sanal bedenin konumunu ve toplumdaki yerini belirlerken, deneyimleri ve kimlik oluşumlarıyla toplumun sanal alanda bireysel terimlerle nasıl işlediğini anlamak mümkün olabilmektedir. Çalışma, sanal beden / kimlik inşası sürecindeki kilit aktörleri tanımlamaya yardımcı olmakta ve aynı zamanda filmin kendisinde olduğu gibi sanal ve doğal olan ikiliğe dikkat çekmektedir.

Abstract
The film Avatar is a distinct example of the representation of the virtual/actual body dualism and can provide an understanding of the matter through the use of phenomenological approach to address the issues of virtual identities and nature/virtual binary opposition. As we identify the position of the virtual body and its position in society, it might be possible to understand how society functions in individual terms in virtual space with their experiences and identity formations. The study will help identify key actors in the process of virtual body/identity construction and also look into the disguise of the binary opposition of virtual vs. natural as evident in the film itself.
