Roma Filmi Örneğinde Eleştirel Söylem Analizi ve Kültürel Temsiller

Öz

The issue of which mechanisms are effective in determining people's behaviors in social life has been a subject that has been discussed for a long time. Consensual self presented during interactions, the self shaped as a result of the audience's practices and the player self are all at the same time inherent in each individual. Because as soon as the individual interacts with the other, s/he actually comes to a scene in front of the others and interacts by conveying some things in this scene and by not transmitting or covering some aspects. In this study, the Roma movie and the caharacters are analyzed according to critical discourse analysis method and the cultural representations presented in the movie are uncovered through the use of Hofstede's cultural dimensions. A historical background of Mexican history is provided in order to unravel the political instances in the movie. It turns out that the Roma movie skillfully brings together the experiences of Cleo, a Mexican native maid, in the light of both family conflicts and worrying social events in the complex political environment of the 1970s.
