Being An Outsider Analysis

The first two tasks we were given were to create a still image of an outsider with a sickness standing in public and to show a scene with thought tracking of people seeing the outsider for the first time. In the first task, Rabia and I tried to show an outsider sitting and trying to walk.
In the second task, we were in a group of six people. There was a police man interpreted by Sifanur and her thought was, “I have to kill this monster.” There was the thought of a beggar, Flora, which was, “I thought I had the worst life,” which was meant to show that there are always other people having a worst life than you.

Ayhan went to fix a shelf in her room and he saw the big bed. Amir went to Almina and said she had a bed that could fit four people and that she never cleans her pond. Then Almina went to somebody else and said that the girl had a bed for four people and that the pond is full of human sweat. That way the rumors changed into gossip and accusations to the
