AB - The film 「Volver」 tells the story of three generations of women, the fate of the grandmother, mother, and daughter, inseparable from each other, who survive a fierce battle against a given poor environment. It also includes the daily lives of women who have to face various difficulties, but always we can witness a strong and friendly heroine, motherhood, and women’s solidarity and hope. They are not subject to passive subjugation under the patriarchal system, and can confirm that they are independent, modern women, who solve all problems according to their will. On the other hand, the men in the film are described as unforgivable human beings who consistently betray and are deceitful, dealing only with the women who relate to them. In the end, men are subject to murder by women in this film, and in view of the need to destroy or sever the established order between sexes, the goal of radical feminism, the main female role of killing men in the film gains special significance. After all, it can be seen in the film that all male main figures are those who have been defeated or marginalized in their relationships with women, especially in gender politics.
