Abstract

Cinema, one of today's most important entertainment and art tools, shapes society and is also shaped by society. Analysing cinema with psychoanalytic feminist theory reveals the unconscious gender perceptions of people who both form society and produce art. Taking into account the power of the strong relations between language and ideology to reflect society and art, the film is taken as a text and analysed with a discourse analysis approach. Considering that dreams are true stories of the unconscious full of hidden narratives the dream texts in the film were analysed. Accordingly, it was concluded that women are more in need of sisterhood and solidarity, and that they have very fragile positions in pursuing their dreams as independent individuals. It has been observed that culture is criticised from inside and outside. It is understood that women are left out of the cinema both as representation and as subjects of practices.

Özet

Günümüzün en önemli eğlence ve sanat araçlarından biri olan sinema, toplumu şekillendirmekte ve aynı zamanda toplum tarafından şekillendirilmektedir. Sinemanın psikanalitik feminist teoriyle analiz edilmesi de hem toplumu oluşturan hem de sanatı üreten insanların bilinç dışı toplumsal cinsiyet algılarını gözler önüne sermektedir. Dil ve ideoloji arasındaki güçlü ilişkilerin toplumu ve sanatı yansıtma gücü dikkate alınarak; film bir metin olarak alımlanmış ve söylem analizi yaklaşımıyla incelenmiştir. Rüyaların, toplumsal cinsiyet dinamiklerini yansıtan ve pekiştiren gizli anlatılar ve sembolik temsillerle dolu bilinç dışının gerçek hikâyeleri olduğu düşünülerek filmdeki rüya metinleri analiz edilmiştir. Buna göre kadınların kız kardeşlik ve dayanışmaya daha fazla ihtiyaç duyduğu ve bağımsız bireyler olarak hayallerinin peşinden koşma konusunda çok kırılgan konumlara sahip oldukları çıkarımlarına varılmıştır. Bu filme dair yapılan psikanalitik feminist incelemede, kültürün içeriden ve dışarıdan eleştirildiği görülmüştür. Kadınların, hem temsil olarak sinemanın içinde hem de pratiklerin özneleri olarak sinemanın dışında bırakıldıkları anlaşılmıştır.
