Just a few "Cultural Transition" film suggestions:
OUT OF AFRICA
THE KING AND I and ANNA
THE NEW LAND
FAR AND AWAY
THE GODS MUST BE CRAZY
THE TIME OF OUR LIVES (veterans coming home from foreign war, WWII)
HEAVEN AND EARTH (Oliver Stone film re return from Viet Nam war)
COMING HOME
BORN ON THE FOURTH OF JULY
The Search Goal:
A colleague of mine is looking for films with plots featuring cultural
>transition(s), i.e. someone going to a foreign country, or someone coming
>home, and in both cases having to make some cultural adjustments and/or
>resisting changes.
