Abstract

This study aims to descriptively explore women in two Chinese films, namely Mulan and the Great Wall, using the descriptive qualitative research method. The theory used in this study referred to the psychology and gender context. The data collection technique was carried out through library research, while the data analysis technique was carried out through identification, classification, reduction, interpretation, and verification stages. The results found three findings. First, women are not allowed to go to war because war is only for men. Second, women cannot be strong because strength belongs to men. Third, women are demeaned. The findings showed that Chinese society still supports the view that women are the second class in society, and women should be subservient to men and should not be superior to men.
