Gone Too Far

Links to Alvarado's theory, falling into the category of humorous and exotic. The lifestyle represented within the trailer is very exotic from the mothers traditional clothing. The music choice is also quite true to the stereotype of the urban cultured youth. The traditional Ghanaian boy is seen as the humorous 'jester.' One of the female characters in the trailer also 'essentialize' all Ghanaian's as "they all look the same."

Links to Alvarado's theory, falling into the category of humorous and exotic. The lifestyle represented is rather exotic, through the urban lifestyle - this also links to Fanon's idea of decivilized youths as the 3 black males are presented as quite colloquial and 'gangster-like.'
