Rob Marshall – „Die Geisha“ (2005)Zhang Ziyi tanzt in Kimono und Stolz durch eine Welt, die nicht die ihre ist. Und das ist ein Hollywood-Film über japanische „Traditionen“, gedreht von einem US-Regisseur, gespielt von chinesischen Stars, gesprochen in Englisch. Also kein Ausflug in eine andere Kultur, sondern deren totale Aneignung. Schönheit wird hier nur ausgestellt, aber leider nicht verstanden. (ZDF, Wh.)

Gareth Edwards – „The Creator“ (2023)
Ein ziemlich großartiges postkoloniales SciFi-Märchen über Macht, Angst und das Scheitern menschlicher Hybris. Eine Zukunftsvision, die aussieht wie eine Erinnerung an den alten Westen: erschöpft, imperial, sentimental. Zwischen Los Angeles und Neu-Asien kämpft der Mensch gegen die eigene Erfindung – eine künstliche Intelligenz - und verliert dabei alles, was ihn menschlich machen könnte.
