Central Bazaar derives its theme (as well as its title) from a shop which functions as a bazaar - that is, a place for the sale of miscellaneous articles.

Central Bazaar is a real place and it is this metaphor which remains the only available reference with which to place the film. This must be emphasised since the metaphor of the shop really exists, as do the events and imagery in the film which themselves becomes a metaphor for the viewer. S.D.
