What types of themes does the filmmaker explore in this film? How do those films connect to ideas about representation, race (racism), ethnicity, etc. ? Be specific.Finally, choose one theme and write a thesis statement that argues how this theme intersects with the ideas of race, ethnicity and/or representation that we’ve studied in this class.
