Mis-representations of Tibet in the West and in China:
Seven Years in Tibet versus Red River Valley
Résumé
I am going to be taking a look at contemporary visual representations of Tibet
and Tibetans in the context of two films: one Chinese film we will call “Red
River Valley” and a famous Franco-american film, Seven Years in Tibet. The
main point here is to demonstrate how two different ideologies can produce
very similar discourses and maintain lack of understanding by avoiding debate
and supporting orientalist mis-representations of the Other.
