The rights we think we deserve today were exchanged through such great sacrifices hundreds of years ago. Hundreds of years ago, it was unimaginable that the Western society, which experienced the baptism of the Industrial Revolution, was at the forefront of the world, the oppression of women, in the patriarchal patriarchy In the dominant social system, women have little status, no right to vote, no custody of children, and work longer hours than men for lower pay. When women start to try to change this social inequality, they have to pay. Paying the price of life, in the so-called civilized society, imprisoning, beating, intimidation, threats are all over the place, "If we have a daughter, what kind of life will she have" "Like you" Like her, she was born in the capitalist Growing up in a factory, being molested by the factory's rights owners when we were young, and doing overworked jobs with meager wages in our youth... "We occupy half of the population, and we are one of the must-have members of every family" so simple A real cry cannot wake up those in power who enjoy the welfare of the social structure, nor can they fight for more voice for themselves in the family. Instead, it is a tougher blow, the fate of being expelled, but always fight and never surrender! In our social discourse system, when the country was founded, women have the same rights as men. Women and men are both newcomers to socialism, and they are an indispensable part of building a country. Therefore, we have not experienced such tragic women. The liberation movement, in our opinion, those rights that are not really cared about in other parts of the world are very difficult to obtain. At the end of the film, instead of using the conventional technique at the end of the film, fading draws the audience away from the screen, instead, it uses the film technique that often appears at the beginning of the film, the picture gradually brightens, and cuts the real historical fragments, subtitles The time when women's suffrage was established The list of nodes is even more moving. In the history of nearly 100 years, are women really liberated? I think this is also what the film wants to ask.
