      Dawn of Feminism

      It was slow at first, but then it was great. The three women have their own misfortunes, but in the end, they all escaped the backward villages to find their happy land. Lu Xun said that if women want to talk about independence, they must first be financially independent, and Jishan and his wife in the film are the best representatives. The women in the backward villages rely on handicrafts to earn money, so that they can buy mobile phones and TVs. , broadening the horizons of women, Rani...

      Only self resistance can save oneself.

      I've watched "Mystery Superstar", "Toilet Hero", "Starting Line" and so on, and every movie shocked me. I haven't been to India, I don't know if the real India is like the story in the movie, but art comes from life, and I think this is also a microcosm of Indian society.

      When I watched "Desert Flower" before, I was very shocked. It turned out that the life of African people is like this, and the status of women is so humble. However, through her own efforts, the heroine finally got a...

      If there is hope in your eyes, then you are alive

      "Hot" tells the story of three women in an extremely poor village, just about their daily lives, but with a feminist mindset.

      Rani is a 32-year-old single mother who has been widowed for 15 years. In order to get her son a wife, she paid 400,000 rupees to book a girl in the next village. The little daughter-in-law who passed by always seemed preoccupied with a sad face; there was also an unfamiliar man who often called and talked about ambiguous words, making him...

      Only they can save them

      Three hard-working women, maybe the movie "Hot" further means suffering. When Rani was young, she was also a hard-working woman. She was often beaten and scolded by her husband. Her husband died in a car accident, but left behind an even more scoundrel son. Under normal circumstances, this cycle would always exist in that village. Go down. The lovely little daughter-in-law has something she likes, but because of the objection of her family, she cut her hair, but she still married someone...

      The Indian version of Mad Flowers at the End of the World is very gratifying. In the end, every woman has her own happy ending. I am quite happy. The actor's restoration degree is really high, and I cried several times in the...

      This is the third film about women's rights I've seen in India, and all three are great! I never imagined that such a film could be made in such a climate as India, and it would be great if it would help improve the status quo of women's rights in India. The three women have different personalities and different circumstances, but they are all strong, reasonable, ideal and kind in their...

      A bright banner of feminism, I have been thinking that if India's social concept can be like China's, it will soon surpass...
