Exploring the power of representation and psychoanalysis of the stereotype. The film speaks to its audiences as well as the film speaks for its audiences' unconsciousness. The film is a language that I composed to depict the enigmatic signifiers of representation. The film is asking the questions, who has the power to represent other culture? how do they represent it?
