Update

So the final film is now underway, but it has changed a lot from the synopsis I wrote about earlier.  It is still dealing with the same topics of alienation, marginalization, and the communities or families that form from that alienated position, but it is handling the subject matter differently.   What was problematic with the previous synopsis was that I, as  the filmmaker, was envisioning a completely made up concept of 'otherness', then trying to detail the faulty exploitative nature of the film maker trying to inform an unaware audience of this made-up otherness.  But that's what it is- it is a made up or created otherness that i wanted to pass off as genuine in order to place fault with the filmmaker and that ethnographic type of film making.  But since i had to create the otherness in the first place it  doesn't come off correctly.  Especially with the ending being as it was- the boy, alienated by the civilized world, tries to return to his group but finds hes no longer welcome.  The double alienation results in his death.  In this ending ' the other' bears the persecution, not the filmmaker, or that type of film making.  The camera must be turned more retrospectively on the filmmakers and it must be obvious they have created this vision of 'otherness' for the purpose of the film.
