This study explores the functions of nonverbal components in film discourse and their consideration in the process of audiovisual translation. Nonverbal elements such as facial expressions, gestures, intonation, eye contact, camera angles, lighting, and background music play a significant role in delivering meaning, emotion, and cultural context in cinematic storytelling. These elements often work alongside spoken language to create a deeper, multimodal layer of communication that is essential for fully understanding a film’s narrative and emotional tone. Using a qualitative research method, the study analyzes selected scenes from English-language films and their Uzbek translations. A multimodal discourse analysis approach is employed to examine how nonverbal cues are handled in subtitling and dubbing, with attention to whether these elements are preserved, adapted, or lost. The results show that nonverbal components are frequently neglected or insufficiently interpreted, which can result in miscommunication or loss of meaning in the target version. This is particularly evident in scenes involving humor, irony, sarcasm, or culturally bound behaviors. The study concludes that effective audiovisual translation should go beyond verbal content and include awareness of nonverbal communication. Translators need to be sensitive to multimodal elements and their functions within the source film. Incorporating these aspects can improve the cultural and emotional accuracy of translated content, leading to more authentic and engaging viewer experiences across languages and cultures.
