ResumoThe project focuses on the movie Black Panther as a revolutionary step in media industry. The movie Black Panther is in many ways a love letter to black culture and breaks all the conventions from the Hollywood movies. Movie address the problems of colonization, racial discrimination, globalization and discovers the problems associated with the stability of strength among the west and rest. Emphasize the importance of gender and race in the film industry. Mostly in western culture, muscles are generally used to show masculinity, primarily white masculinity. Whereas black males are stereotyped as a negative, antagonistic symbol of masculinity often portrayed as beasts, gangsters and other one-dimensional figures without any deeper meaning in their characters. Black Panther was a movie that changed how African country was shown in foreign films by showing the viewer’s the fictional nation of Wakanda. In conventional movie culture, African countries are often portrayed with the flavours of slavery, dullness and a society uncivilized. While Black Panther portrays Wakanda, a African country as a wholly advanced civilization, technologically and culturally. Black Panther’s vision of Wakanda as a bustling metropolis of vibranium-powered futuristic skyscrapers, racing trains and soaring spaceship feels so refreshing
