Abstract
Causality is a significant concern to humankind and also a fundamental philosophic concept. Western philosophers whose ideas are discussed in this research, studied cause-effect relationship from different point of views. Cinematic narrative is a combination of causality ,time and space system. In classic narrative which are typically in Hollywood films, causality is the most important element that guarantee the coherence and unity of a plot. Since the causality in Aristotle's philosophical tradition was essential, the cause-effect relationship in classic cinematic narrative is also based on the principle of necessity. Cause-effect relationship in postmodern cinematic narrative is accidental. It seems that variation in cause-effect relationship through philosophical thoughts resulted in transformation of causality in film narrative structure. Since narrative in Iranian films is in part a reflection of the narrative in western cinema, this study tries to investigate and assert the impact of philosophical causality on the cause-effect relationship of cinematic narrative. Furthermore surveying the Taste of Cherry (1999) by method of content analysis is considered to examine the narrative variation from conversion of the cause-effect relationship
