Entry 13 - Filmology that propaganda feminism



While 1 of my favorite movie "The lady", This movies have been propaganda feminism, that how a small women actually been fighting for the right in a male dominated country. What i like about this movie is, how Michelle Yeoh actually bring the strong and dedication of a woman, while a scene that she show no fear of so many guns are pointing on her.  I don't want to mention more about it left to you to watch the movie !

Aung san suu kyi, is a Myanmar opposition politician that fights for democracy and feminism.  Her role as a mother, that devoted to family, role as a politician to bring freedom to the country. While how she played a role as a mother and the country, this actually shows how strong a women's can be while she wanted to protect something she love.


The reason that i included this movie in the research blog because i think that this movies actually makes me understand more about feminism. Women's might be weak in some sense, but yet their determination towards are strong that even guys cant catch up. Eventhough now it seems it relevant more to feminism on political issues, but yet this movies shows how she affected the attitude of the citizen that all placed hope on her to bring freedom to them. 


She stated this during her award of Nobel prize of awarding : "I believe women play the more important part in our world because not only are they entering the professional world, they still remain the pillars of their homes and families. So I hope the menfolk in this audience will forgive me for speaking in favor of women–for speaking out in favor of women–because I think only a woman can understand the troubles, the problems, the discrimination that other women have to face.

So, from this day onward  until all the people in the world, particularly all the women in the world, are able to achieve their full potential, I hope we will be able to work together closely and in the true spirit of sisterhood."
This is has also shown that, how importantly that women plays a role in a men daily life. I could say that without a women, men wouldn't be here. I might not be a woman, after researching all these and i started to understand about the hardship of a woman living in the society. While i hope all the men out there could understand more and stop gender discrimination.
