description: This research discusses the Orientalism issue which is portrayed in Whiskey Tango Foxtrot film. This film tells about Kim Baker, an American journalist who initially works as a producer at the national station. She is assigned to cover the war between Afghanistan and Pakistan in 2003. This film contains cultural conflict between the West and the Afghans as the East. This research aims to identify and explain the Orientalism issue in the film Whiskey Tango Foxtrot such as how the East is stereotyped in the Western perspective and what racism appears from the West to the East. Since the researcher uses qualitative research, this research analyzes the way Orientalism is portrayed through narrative and visual aspects by using Orientalism theory proposed by Edward Said and film theory. Then, the result of the analysis is that the East is portrayed as barbaric, uncivilized, conservative, patriarchal, and irrational people. Meanwhile, the West is portrayed as the best, modern, and rational people. The researcher also finds that the distorted image by the West is considered to humiliate the East.
