The fact that wonka corrupts their memories into believing they lived in some kind of savage harsh land is horrifying.

[@greensaintjester6392]

It truly is

[@lord_ozymandias]

plus a really good statement on how in the past and also today, western (predominantly white and Christian) cultures would/still view native, african etc cultures and ways of life as “lesser” and “savage”, thus dehumanising them and devaluing their traditions. wonka is basically rewriting history the same way

[@lord_ozymandias]

@@VanyaTheSlavic well sure obviously it was nuanced, everything is, but the overall consensus both back then and today is and was that those cultures were lesser. even if we had briefly friendly relations before we colonized/enslaved them and took all their shit there was always the persistent belief that their religions and ways of life were unholy or otherwise in need of being changed or saved. obviously there were probably some people who didn’t believe in all that. and there’s way more people who don’t believe in it today, which rocks. but the overall consensus is what’s important because that’s the consensus that got all those people fucked over and continues to fuck them over today

[@Tyrless]

For me, the part that absolutely shook me was when Wonka first met the people. The whole start of the film was a slow, windup showing the life of the life of the person before they had their identity stripped away from themselves. It lulls the viewer into a sense of calmness before being plunged into a frigid water of shock. The moment of silence when the infant was dropped into the water too was absolutely brilliant. That moment was the tipping point to me of the whole thing. A horrific yet beautifully executed piece of media. Great friggin job.

[@user-ss5rq3ix9w]

Wait I just noticed the child's father calls minds "loompa" in the flashback and he calls drowning "oompa", so "Oompa Loompas" is "drowned minds" damn

I wonder if the White Crocodile representing the dangers of their homeland is their subconscious assigning a symbol to Wonka. A lot of what would make a crocodile dangerous to the pygmy's are things you can use to describe Wonka. The danger mainly lurking in the water as Wonka's most dangerous to the Pygmys is with his boat, the stealthy movement and ambush predation as he hid his intentions, that cold unfeeling unmoving gaze, how a crocodile of the size of their false memories would have consumed them whole like what he was doing to their identity, etc.

[@igzymig]

@@swishfish4289 I think Wonka was rewriting their memories as we saw the Crocodile attack on the animal early on was replaced with it attacking a pigmy making them remember their land as being more dangerous and needed saving from than it actually was.

[@thehungrylittlenihilist]

It's kind of in the original too. All the people in the slums where Charlie lived probably worked in the factory, but Wonka instead went and got "primitive" people from an island where they didn't know about money and he could just pay them in cocoa beans. It's classic British colonialism.

[@ConnorJaneu]

@@thehungrylittlenihilistIn the original draft of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the Oompa Loompas were referred to as “Pygmys” that Wonka literally “saved” from their homelands. I believe this is where the inspiration for this short comes from and honestly I’m glad the more problematic aspects of the Dahl’s stories are getting some kind of examination. It is genuinely fascinating to interpret the story in a sort of colonial/industrialist lens.

[@josevictor2229]

I love how we have a juxtaposition here with the Elder Villager's speech and Wonka's speech. While the Elder's is a profound travel through their cultural way of living in harmony, Wonka' speech is just terrorizing, condescending, patronizing, and just really creepy in all the senses of the word. He reduct every villager's lifes has a mere dream so he can more easily substitute to another "way of living" that is nothing more than just mere "false reality", or for the lack of better words, "dreams". They probably didn't even call themselves "oompa loompas", that's probably the name Wonka gave to them.

[@truckwarrior5944]

Thats pretty much implied in the fact, that the words Oompa and Loompa appear in this video multiple times. Loompa is very clearly said when he is talking about Drowning, when we hear the word Oompa, the only word that is in every sentenced translated is Mind. Unlikely they called theirselves something like the drowned minds, especially when this goes so much against their philosophy.

[@jjp9262]

Yeah this is the biggest allegory I have seen to the cultural erasure of Indigenous Peoples and all of those points really elevate the allegory.

[@JohnDoe-ds8um]

In all honesty the Oompa Loompas being enslaved to work at a chocolate factory against their will is very close to the canon of the original book

[@rowan404]

Iirc, in the original book, the Oompa Loompas were black and Willy Wonka had a white savior complex. Like, he actually did find them in an African jungle, and he offered them shelter from some sort of predator in exchange for their service. I don’t think there was nearly as much trauma and gore in the original, but considering how close this interpretation is to canon and how many people are creeped out by Willy Wonka, it could be a case of unreliable narration. Where this becomes especially strange is the connection to Roald Dahl’s actual life. In his second autobiography, Going Solo, he has an African servant while stationed there shortly before WWII. I hate to say it, but, if you squint, there is a little bit of a white savior complex there as well. He wrote about how his “boy” adored him, how he taught him how to read, and as a funny anecdote, mentioned how the clueless African man murdered the town’s mayor because he was German. I think Roald intended for Willy to be a good guy but was tainted by his own bias.

[@isaiahvanderslice1730]

Using small people as slaves to make chocolate is also the canon of the real world

[@thecouncilofbrazilianchads5580]

Roald Dhal actually didn’t intent to have Wonka as a enslaver parallel that was a fortunally (in the sense that he wasn’t actually writing a slavery allegory and showing the practice as a good thing) an unfortunate coincide and it was when people started making that comparison he latter changed that in later releases of his book to be what we know the Oompa Loompas today

[@MayaPosch]

@@rowan404 You say that as if it was anything unique to Roald Dahl, and not the tragic result of the British Empire, which along with the Spanish conquistadors and countless other nations from Europe (like Muscovy), as well as Asia (e.g. Imperial Japan) saw themselves as the Rulers of the World, and obviously destined to bring Civilisation to all.

[@justcallmekai1554]

I genuinely love the themes and symbolism here. Lofti was born from the waters and now he and his people drown in it. They will not join the stars with the elderly man once told. Its like when that happened something was lost. And then immediately after, the ship shows up. "Feel the rivers flow" (All of the inhabitants dying or being under Wonkas control), feel their mind drift in the dream. Wonka snickers when he tells Lofti to dream big. On one had they are "Pygmies" being small trying to dream big (when they die they join the stars). A sort of dark comedy. And on the other hand, Wonka thinks they live in a small hostile environment which juxtapose from what we saw in the Elderly Man's speech. They were fine there but to Wonka they were already "Oompa Loompas". Ready to work for him.

[@user-jz2ds2br3z]

Yeah

[@stravask9835]

I've seen a lot of symbolism analysis in the comments, but for some reason I haven't seen anyone point out that the "Vermicious Knid" (the bird) is seemingly the Loompas representation of death, and at 3:50 when the father(?) is eaten/carried off to the horizon by the bird (dying), the next thing the Loompas see if Wonkas ship on the horizon approaching their island. This visualization therefore presents Wonka either as *being* Death, or that he comes from the Land of Death and intends to take them all there. I know it's probably not the most mind-blowing connection to point out, but since I hadn't read any comments that mention it I wanted to make sure it doesn't go unnoticed.

[@jebshere]

I think you’re pretty close to it. The knid is their depiction of death in the natural cycle and Wonka is the representative of an unending unnatural death with no escape.

That something they thought once thought as connecting them to God and the after life, was stripped down of all it's cultural context to the point that the Knid is remembered as a horrific monster that "ate them" - deliberately so Wonka can make their past more of a painful memory.

The original story has the Oompa Loompas living in a savage hellscape, a metaphor for the White man coming and saving the African and Native peoples of the world from nature and hardships, which was a lie since they were very much in control of their own environment. A lie to justify genocide slavery and exploitation. The offer of Candy in exchange for their lives is another metaphor for how the White man offered processed goods that brought happiness to natives. This also echos the historical exchange of petty glass baubles for real gold and treasure that the advanced Spanish used to "barter" with native Americans... before they outright enslaved them. It is good to see these metaphors being thoroughly broken apart by this animation, with a far more realistic truth. It takes a well-told story to make people dream.

In 2:57 and 3:06 we here the word "loompa". In the translation on the the word mind/minds and wanders/wandering repeat themselves. But sinde in 3:23 we don't hear anything close to loompa, when he says "You never need to wander" it's most likely the word mind or the plural minds that means Loompa. 3:15 we hear the word "Oompa" which is directly translated to drown. So Oompa Loompa would mean a combination of the words Mind/Minds and Drown in some form. So we have a few possible translations (since we don't really know how the Oompa Loompa Language works): -Drown (your) mind(s) -Drowning mind(s) -Drowned mind(s) And thats how you make a funny sounding name like Oompa Loompa some really really dark irony.

This raises genuinely fascinating connections between colonist ideals and the depiction of Oompa Loompas as a sort of “tamed savage” made to work in an industrial environment. Especially in how their servitude is depicted as liberation from a life of savagery and into a more “noble” or “happy” life as unquestioning workers.

Don’t know how many people caught this. But if you pay close attention to what is being said by the father Oompa Loompa in his monologue, you realise that the word ‘loompa’ means ‘mind’ in their language. I didn’t catch what’ oompa’ means and I’m not sure it’s featured in his monologue. But it’s very possible that Wonka gave them the name Oompa Loompa meaning ‘broken mind’ or ‘lost mind’ in their own native language. Since they likely wont remember their pasts and likely their language, it gives me chills to think that the Oompa Loompa’s brainwashing has been right in front of their faces the whole time. And no one but Wonka will know.

[@jeffreylagden9198]

This is another great story you have created. Well examined, directed, written and animated. Hats off

[@cringefailtastic]

This is one of the most beautiful and horrifying animations I've seen, probably ever. The depiction and details of the tribe and how beautifully they lived, and taught their children the ways of the world, and loved each other and their home. The very real and very brutal depiction of colonialism and slavery, and the total, utter destruction of the mind and spirit of a human through torture and trauma. The flashback of that man losing his baby, desperately, frantically trying to get his child back, and dissolving into nothing with wonka towering over him, still talking as if he's their savior while twisting their minds and distorting their memories is insanely powerful. And even scarier is the reveal from hearing the father speaking in their native language that "oompa loompa" isnt the name these people called themselves in the tribe. "Oompa" meant mind, and "loompa" meant drowned. When they call themselves that, they're called themselves the "drowned minds". And thats the only words we hear them say in that language. The only thing they have from their old lives is an expression of agony. They should genuinely show this in history classes.

[@toastle8005]

It also doesn’t shy away from the brutality of nature, the vision of the wife getting snatched by the crocodile, the insects, the disease and toil Wouldn’t it be better, if Wonks could take it all away? Make it a safer world, of constant sugar and gorging and security? Where the world isn’t trying to eat you anymore… but where everything is edible, and you can exert the most primal, pure form of dominance and power over the things around you. By *eating* them. Wouldn’t that be a nicer world? What good was uncertainty, and the pain and suffering, of humanity in a creation that wanted to eat them? Why not conquer danger, uncertainty, and the torture of destroyed dreams, of drowned babies and spouses eaten by animals, by believing in the man determined to rescue you from ever NOT having every desire at your fingertips every moment, for the rest of your life? After all… as Wonks said, what better dream is there, to believe in, *than Me*
