Abstract

Film expresses and reproduces life, primarily expresses the ideology of the creator through the fusion of screen images and life-based narratives. In addition, the films act as the creator's reflective presentation of a certain social phenomenon or a certain theme. Recently, China's social concept has been influenced by diversified factors, such as the development of China's social ideological trend, the change of cultural concepts, and the improvement of women's economic status. On this background, women's social status has been significantly improved. Subsequently, changes in the status of women accelerated the exposure of social crises related to women.
