television‚ it is the only way they view the other people in terms of their race and national origin. One of the contribution of race or national origin discrimination in the world has been due to the stereotyping that are depicted in the films or TV programs which we watch. The effects of language management‚ in a movie with a “multilingual” storyline‚ is of adequate importance to ensure that the stereotyping portrayed are positive.
