GAADI FILM AND THING OF OTHERNESS

Image
In Prasanna Withanage’s film Gaadi, everyday objects help show how the Rodee community is treated as different . Simple things like clothes, farming tools, and types of food are used to show the difference between the powerful and the powerless. These objects don’t just represent the differences; they help create and show the unfair treatment and separation between the two groups. This film mainly focus the two groups the powerful and powerless. so the otherness works between this groups in this family.  I choose this 2 example, 1)  The Wita Kela mark 2) The Begging Bowl THE WITA KELA MARK  In the movie, Vijaya uses the wita kela to recognize Tikiri as his wife, marking her as a member of the Rodee group.

It is the same process in both: recognize the problem, ...

  Different People Thinking  All of us are like fingers on hand. No one like others. We all are different . all our thinking are different. this is the otherness. Does everyone think the same way? Of course not! Every one has his or her way of thinking, and we can saw this different all the ways in social.  one day my brother gave me an LED strap to put on my wall in my room. He really likes bright, colorful lights, and I know he was excited to give it to me. But when I got it, I didn’t feel the same. I don’t like bright colors or flashing lights. I like calm and simple decorations for my room. always i like to be in calm vibe.  That show how everyone thinks differently – what my brother likes, I may not, but other person can like it . I might not enjoy the LED lights myself, but knowing he thought it would make me happy, I appreciate the gift because of that. But I don't think I will ever really like the colorful lights. I would like to receive presents to my own ta...
