This movie is one of my favorite movies ever and highly recommend if you are interested and have not seen it to watch it. until recently I did not really thought about it as being connected to the idea of displacement until I rewatched it. It is about how a mom tells her daughter that if she goes outside she will die due to a rare sickness she has.  throughout the movie, it is seen how the mom does everything in her power to keep her daughter isolated from the world. This relates to displacement because she feels displaced in her own home. Not being able to go outside and enjoy a normal teenage life makes her feel isolated, alone and like she is not really living. This relates to the power that displacement can have in a person to the point where they don’t feel that they belong and in her situation, she does not know anything about the outside world or how to fit into society.
