Learning to analyze

This assignment required that I come to a conclusion about conformity and non-conformity based on cultural assumptions. I was supposed to analyze how the film displayed crossing cultural lines and expound upon how my personal opinions and those of my classmates were challenged by those exhibited in the film. I did well summarizing what my classmate’s opinions were and how they were challenged, but I neglected to add my own analysis of specific moments in the film. “Our discussion about Pai's non-conformity to her tribe's cultural traditions held that she did it in an effort to gain the favor of her grandfather.” In revising this paper I integrated my analysis of the film and some sections of the film that displayed them.
