Representation of Religion in our film

Mise En Scene

In our film we have the East London mosque, which is a place that is used for worship within the Muslim community and a key location for the plot we wanted to show. The rooms are filled with books and Arabic designs. In contrast we have Owens park, a place used for smoking, this shows the haraam element of the main character, as smoking is seen as bad in the Muslim religion.




Music

We begin our film with some arabic music that fits nicely with the muslim themes we wanted to portray in the first half of our opening. This is then contrasted with rap music that is so far removed from muslim culture.


Editing

In our film we have alot of slowed down scenes such as the unraveling of the main characters head scarf. These slowed down scenes are to emphasise key transitions between Muslim and haraam behaviour and vice versa.
