Abstract

The problem of adaptation or ecranisation is that, in the process, the media changes the original content. The Kite Runner (2007) is an adaptation movie from the novel by Khaled Hosseini with the same title. As a novel written with Afganistan social setting, it is densed with Islamic values and culture. However, as an adaptation, the characters, discourses, and settings shift from its original. This research focuses on the changing and continuity between the novel and the movie, concerning its discourses, characters, and settings. This research uses adaptation theory by Linda Huctheon. The research finding shows that the changing of the adaptation is in the depictions of Islam. They are portrayed more from the society, in this case the Talibans, rather than from the characters. Yet the main characters of this movie are portrayed more westernized in their way of life. The researchers conclude that the changing occurs as a construct of a new discourse of Islam. The movie portrays Afghanistan people as a less religious community yet more westernized. Keywords: Islam, Afghanistan, Adaptation, Novel, Movie, The Kite Runner
