In a society where women must exist as a secondary sex, Jeddah and Eurydice represent two models respectively. The younger sister Jeddah is outgoing and enthusiastic, brave enough to express herself, but in the eyes of others, she is a slutty, unclean woman. She was not accepted by her parents, and getting a decent job would be dismissed by other male colleagues, as if because of the loss of her virginity, she was no longer a "complete" and "clean" woman; while her sister Eurydice was completely different. This kind of existence: She is calm and sensible, doing everything well, whether it is studying or living, she listens to her parents and puts family first. If you look at your sister from the perspective of others, it fully meets the requirements for the image of a woman in the social environment at that time.
But what about the facts? After being kicked out of the house, Jeddah worked hard to live no matter how hard she was. She worked two jobs a day to support herself and her children. She treats people sincerely and has made good friends in the new environment. Even though Eurydice enters the family, she still wants to enter the Vienna Conservatory. She yearns for a broader ocean and has been working hard for it. If they are placed in the environment of the current era, through their own efforts, I guess the final result will not be too bad in probability.
But in the film’s era and region (Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, 1950), the reality gave them two completely different results. After Jeddah had a certain economic (house) strength, there was a granddaughter at the end. Look, I got married and had my own family later, and my life gradually improved. But she never mentioned the previous things to others again. The most beautiful and pure days and the true self were all sealed by the dust of time. My sister was diagnosed with bipolar disorder after the fire. Judging from the following plot, she should have successfully reshaped her "new self" through treatment. No one cares what they want, they are always remembered only when they are needed, as if they are just a brainless object with a womb.
This item should be given full affirmation and respect when a man speaks, whether it is right or wrong, and it is best to be accompanied by a silly laugh. The body can be plundered arbitrarily, no one cares whether they are really willing, even if the other party's forced sex is defined as strong j under the condition of rejection by either party. The right of childbearing is held in the hands of men, and any personal will must be pushed aside before childbirth, regardless of whether you can balance your family and your dreams. Always under the “protection” of men, letters are confiscated, and visas cannot be applied for without a husband’s certificate. Losing a man is like losing his mind. In Yang Li's words, "Those men are so ordinary, but so confident."
bye bye.
