The movie Aladdin, which was released 2019, will be used to show the Orients representation by the Europeans and Americans. Close your eyes and think about a desert with camels transporting goods. A bazar where you hear the cries of sellers, smell perfume, spices, coffee and tobacco. A bazar which is colourful, with exotic fruits and marvel lamps. Think about a palace and harem with beautiful women that wear long satin dresses with turbaned faces and golden jewelleries, performing belly dance and Arab men with al lot of gold and diamonds that get feed by their servants. The most people from the West would rapidly think about the Orient because those characteristics describe the Middle East.
