Analisis Semiotika tentang Penggambaran Orang Pedalaman pada Film Indonesia

This study was conducted to see how inland people were described using Ferdinand de Saussure's semiotic methods. As a knife of analysis will be used the concept of blackness developed by Ed Guerrero to see aspects of behavior, intelligence, and emotions of the minority groups depicted in the film. The films analyzed are Sokola Rimba and Lost in Papua. The results showed that Indonesian films with the theme of education and social always attached the minority with the impression of being stupid, primitive and backward. In the category of behavior (behavior), inland people tend to be displayed close to backwardness (primitive) or evil. While intelligent (intelligence), they are described as having low intelligence or stupid, and emotionally (emotionally) are described as people close to violence. The research implications are expected to be a reference in the process of socially identifying tribes in the interior of Papua. Academically, this research is a space for the actualization of social semiotic analysis in Indonesia
