Abstract

This study examines the portrayal of gender in the media, specifically focusing on the use of language by Wu Youli in Su Zhexian’s film “野夏天” (Summer). The objective is to analyze how the representation of gender and societal rolesin the film aligns with feminist perspectives. Additionally, the study aims to explore how the character contributes to their own liberation and challenges in gender stereotypes within the social environment. The research approach employed is qualitative, utilizing a descriptive qualitative method to analyze the phenomena depicted in the film. The data examined consists of verbal symbols in “野夏天” (Summer), representing gender and societal roles through afeminist lens. These symbols are then subjected to analysis using critical discourse analysis. Through this analysis, the study sheds light on the gender issues addressed in the film, thereby enhancing our understanding of gender role inequality within society.
