Your paper should briefly summarize the film content, analyze/critique the film’s message through an anthropological/sociological lens/perspective using course concepts and materials, and reflect upon your personal reaction to or opinion of the film and the issues it raises providing real world examples where appropriate

Learning Goal: I’m working on a anthropology writing question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

Attached is a Film and FILM TRANSCRIPT. I cannot give access to the film itself because of the college credentials required. So I found the video on another website and attached the word-for-word transcript of the film here.

The ONLY work cited to be used is the film itself called:

The Bahaí Faith: Unity in Diversity

Film Critique Guidelines
Film responses should be 3 pages long. They should be typed and double-spaced. 12 pt. font Times New
Roman. Margins should not exceed 1.25 on either side.
Read the film with an eye toward the theories and concepts from the course readings. View the film and
film events through the lens of world culture concepts in the course materials. Relate the film’s situations
or messages to our course concepts and to situations in the real world. What response is the film designed
to elicit from the viewer? Does the film take an ethnocentric view of the culture it chronicles or does it
work to keep out bias? Notice the cinematic tools, language, and visual effects which combine to elicit the
desired response from the audience.
Pay attention to language and assumptions made in the film. Pay attention to which questions the film
asks, which questions it answers and which questions it leaves unasked.
