What is Exploring Orientalism in Film Design about?
This document discusses the concept of orientalism as depicted in the film Black Narcissus. It defines orientalism as exaggerating cultural differences between Asia and the West in a way that portrays Asia as exotic, backward, and inferior. The film uses interior and exterior set designs, costumes, and the character of Kanchi to represent orientalist fantasies of Asia as a sensual, mysterious place. Interior sets featured elaborate murals and furniture representing different Asian cultures in a blended way.
