Yes, this is a feminist film
.
It shows the existence of the women of The Republic of India in a poor land. If you're a woman living there, then you've probably experienced—
She has no right to education since she was a child. If she likes to read, she will be criticized, because a woman who loves to read will not be a good wife
.
There is no freedom of choice in marriage . You're just your father's property, and he'll buy you a good price when you're fourteen or fifteen.
The greatest survival value is to serve men, to take care of their meals and reach out in life, but to be passive in sex
.
The protagonists of the film are three women
.
One is a widow who has been a widow for 15 years, pulling her eldest son alone and racking up debts for his marriage. She also needs love, but she can only suppress herself under pressure
.
An infertile wife who endured beatings by her husband for years because of her infertility
.
A geisha who makes a living by erotic performances and picking up guests, with a fiery passion
.
The film tells the story of the three women's quest to save themselves after their lives hit rock bottom. At the same time, it shows the ignorance of the backward villagers
.
In such a Patriarchy society, women understand the sufferings of women best, but most women choose to obey, and then continue to impose this suffering on others. The mother who knew that the men of the other family raped the woman but insisted on letting her go back to her in-law's house, the villager who turned a blind eye to domestic violence, and the mother who sold her daughter
.
And it is the woman who saves the woman, or herself. Only by saving oneself can one be truly saved. Keep warm and help each other. The widow's mother-in-law finally let go of her daughter-in-law. The woman who suffered domestic violence can only be taken care of at the friend's house, and the geisha also felt the real respect and love from the friend
.
Civilization has great power in the face of savage ignorance, and savage ignorance has the power to destroy civilization. We certainly believe that civilization will eventually triumph over ignorance. But the process is long and difficult. This film shows the struggle of civilization against ignorance
.
The representative of the civilized people in the village is a couple
.
The men help the women of the village find an agency for handmade fabrics. But he was hated for making women more profitable than men. At the same time his ability also stabbed the poor self-esteem of men who have nothing to do. For this, he was retaliated by being beaten half to death in the desert
.
Her wife, a college student with a higher education, worked as a teacher in a neighboring village, but she was criticized by the villagers, who thought she was a witch who was spreading some harmful things
.
At the end of the film, the woman cries that the men are alive and dead and that they are leaving the village for good
.
Even if the three women fled. But the barbarity of that village forced civilization away, and barbarism and ignorance continued to grow in place
.
Education is indeed a harmful thing to savage ignorance. The power of education scares them. And that is the value of education. Only with more universal education and better education can we make civilization overcome barbarism and ignorance. The most important original intention and significance of education lies in adults. Let everyone be who they are, and let human rights be more than men's rights
