%X The films "Memoirs of a Geisha" (2005) and "Sang Penari" (2011) showcase the exciting traditions of two Eastern cultures where practices similar to prostitution become part of a respected social norm. This is a unique phenomenon, considering that Eastern cultures are often known for having high spiritualistic values in their tradition. This research aims to reveal a comparison between these two parallel representations of Eastern culture, examining how the female body and sexuality as elements of prostitution and rituals representing tradition are portrayed through comparative analysis to illustrate the intertwined relationship between the two. Using Stuart Hall's constructionist theory of representation and Michel Foucault's politics of the body as analytical frameworks, this study identifies how women and, sexuality and rituals are portrayed in the two films. It compares them to get an overview of the two traditions. The data used in this research includes scenes, narrative dialogue, and all aspects of the film. This data was classified according to three topics: the female body, sexuality, and rituals, and then examined about each other. The results found similarities between the two representations of traditions, including the practice of commodifying the female body in the geisha and ronggeng traditions that are organized so that they can be accepted in society. In addition, the research shows that women's bodies are used as political tools, and rituals play an important role in maintaining this system by building discourse and societal beliefs. As such, this research provides a deeper understanding of how representations of the body and rituals shape culture and values in the context of the two Eastern traditions studied.
