- Abstract
Exoticism and eroticism often accompany one another in the creation and reading of the Other as a primitive, savage or archaic figure. Atom Egoyan's movie Exotica (1994) offers a frame of intriguing and disturbing type for the development of this link. Our paper analyze this movie by taking as a starting point some elements that are related to its spatial configuration. The space reveals the issue of the double as a main figure of construction at the base of the movie, and we consequently focus on several levels where duplicity can be retrieved.
