Line 49:
* ''Red Sun'' involves samurai coming to [[The Wild West]], and includes a scene where Charles Bronson's cowboy character laughs at a samurai and says that he's wearing a dress.
* ''[[East Is East]]'' is about a Pakistani father struggling to come to terms with his sons being drawn more to British youth culture than his own Islamic values.
* In ''[[Bride and Prejudice]]''
* ''[[Outsourced (film)|Outsourced]]''
* ''[[The Gods Must Be Crazy]]'' uses this as its central theme. The main focus is on the Bushman Xi venturing out into the world of modern South Africa, and getting into many misunderstandings due to his not knowing anything about its society's workings, and vice-versa. Said misunderstandings range from hilarious (accidentally sticking up somebody) to serious (getting locked up in prison).
* ''[[2 States]]'', as the name indicates, has most of the conflict based on Indian regional and generational cultural differences The main couple, Krish and Ananya, from Punjab and Tamil Nandu respectively, are modern cosmopolitan university graduates who are quite similar in values and don't see why their interregional marriage should be a problem. Their respective parents, more attuned to their regional idiosyncrasies, are not of the same opinion, so the couple has to confront not only their intransigent parents but the local culture their beloved grew in before they can marry.
