The movie District 9, is a movie about aliens that end up on Earth, and yet, the movie is as much about social, and geopolitical issues of our time. There are indeed many underlining themes running through the movie.
One interesting thing about the movie is the aliens are put into a slum like area, reminiscent of the Kibera Slum in Nairobi Kenya. There is trash everywhere, raw sewage pits, and the aliens are treated as bad or worse than the most despicable examples of humanity, in the worst urban slums in the world.
When the movie starts out there are 1.2 million aliens stuck in a slum. The movie takes place in Johannesburg South Africa, and the locals in the nearby city want the slum to be removed, and all of the aliens taken to a giant tent city, similar to the ones that are made by the UN, after a major Mother Nature natural disaster.
Of course to move all the aliens, they must first evict them, and get them to sign a piece of paper. Interestingly enough, the aliens have no idea what they are signing or why, not to mention that groups meet them at the door with machine guns.
In many ways, the movie speaks to humanity’s inability to deal with the slum problems, and by the end of the movie there are 2.6 million aliens, which need to be moved, so, in essence District 9 is actually more of an allegory of many of the major problems in the world, as much as it is an alien science-fiction flick. I hope you will please consider this.
