The Reflection of Feminist Theories in Sweden’s Film Thought
Abstract
Kwiatkowski presents some trends in Sweden’s feminist film thought, among other things, on the basis of Tyttia Soila’s 1991 doctoral thesis The Face of a Woman. Kwiatkowski observes that not all women film directors support feminist theories, and that not every man-made film has to represent the patriarchal order”. He even asks whether this order is a myth. Without elaborating he makes a precise analysis of the plot of the masculine view on woman as a sexual object.
