District 9 Description of content & why I chose this text: District 9 is a film that is set in Johannesburg‚ South Africa in the year of 2010.

These characteristics were displayed several times throughout the movie. When people are introduced with something completely new to them‚ they generally don’t adapt to it right away‚ or sometimes‚ not at all. In the movie‚ the aliens were immediately unnaccepted and unwanted. They were not treated as human beings‚ but worse
