How is camera represented through ethnicity in 'Hotel Babylon'?
When the manager starts running around to find the illegal immigrants working the camera is very fast, shaky and it's tracking her POV which shows her panic and how there is a divide with people of different ethnicity's since they have to hide. There is also a shot behind the lift's bars which is not very stable of the manager looking for the workers and it could show what could happen to the immigrants if they get found, also the bars create again a separation with the rest of us. Furthermore when almost all of the workers are safe the camera makes it seem like there is a lot of people by making it look really crowded by having someones shoulder cover the view, which shows how it's a lot of people who are divided and separated from us. When the police find the one immigrant still working the shot is a zoom push on him, like it is trapping him into a certain space, which is what it feels like for people of different ethnicities at the hotel. Also how other people tower over these people who are weaker than them by their ethnicity.
