Abstract
Penelitian ini menganalisis film Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) dari perspektif teori imperialisme Vladimir Ilyich Lenin untuk memahami representasi kapitalisme global dan perlawanan sosial. Film ini menggambarkan konflik antara masyarakat pribumi Na'vi di Pandora dengan pasukan Resources Development Administration (RDA) yang mengeksploitasi sumber daya alam seperti Unobtanium dan Amrita demi keuntungan ekonomi. Menggunakan pendekatan kualitatif dan analisis semiotik, studi ini mengeksplorasi simbolisme visual dan naratif yang mencerminkan ketidakadilan sosial dan perlawanan terhadap imperialisme modern. Hasil dari penelitian ini menunjukkan perjuangan Na'vi mempertahankan tanah dan budaya mereka menegaskan teori Lenin bahwa imperialisme adalah tahap tertinggi kapitalisme yang mengandalkan dominasi ekonomi, politik, dan budaya. Film ini tidak hanya sebagai hiburan, melainkan juga medium yang membangkitkan kesadaran akan pelestarian lingkungan, hak masyarakat pribumi, dan dinamika ketidaksetaraan global saat ini.
