Today I talk about a very "dare" drama.
Xu Weining plays a white-collar worker like Fang Siqi in the play.
Asia Chia , in the play, another "Fang Siqi", plays a wife who has been subjected to domestic violence by her husband for a long time.
Alyssa Chia felt sorry for taking on such a role
In Douban hot comments, everyone praised it even more.
It "filmed almost all the collapse of women in society in the plot."
Yes, "She and Her Her" .
focuses on all kinds of "female abuses" in life.
But most importantly, it shows an angle that is rarely valued - sexually assaulting PTSD.
This is also the news that "Fang Siqi" have been seen by more and more people in the past few years.
but will soon disappear quickly.
People only see how horrible the purgatory is in the shadow of daily life.
is hard to imagine.
This purgatory can make a woman suffer for many years.
"Fang Siqi" are not all small transparent.
"Fang Siqi" in "She and Her Her" is hidden in a kind of glamorous life.
Lin Chenxi (played by Xu Weining), a contemporary independent woman who can be regarded as a successful model in secular standards.
enjoys the "top match" of 30+ women in the circle.
A prosperous career.
As a well-known headhunter consultant in the business district, he has been selected as one of the top ten professional young women of the year.
A perfect boyfriend who talks about marriage.
Li Haoming (Li Chengbin decoration) , handsome and considerate, also a white-collar elite, with an excellent 360° without blind spots.
A mansion that is enviable to colleagues.
Is she happy in her life as if she is in water?
A detail.
Lin Chenxi woke up and panickedly found that a pigeon broke into his home with the doors and windows locked.
It wears a leg ring.
Later, when she was interviewed by the financial report reporter, she suddenly looked at a feather with a steady look and slowly floated in the air.
The reporter called her several times, but she didn't hear it at all, as if she had entered another world.
It was not until the photographer's shutter flashed that he pulled her back to reality.
feathers do not exist.
She lowered her head a little embarrassedly, blinked, and curled her lips, even as if she showed a little disgust for herself who had just lost her soul.
The pigeon does not exist, nor does it remain in its remaining wings.
It is just an externalization of Lin Chenxi's painful subconscious.
and she disliked.
is the self who will always be lost.
She never interacts with others, claiming that she has no family, and the only person close to her is her boyfriend who has been dating for more than three years.
But she never took her guard against him, and even wanted to break up and not drag the other party down.
Only in the small world of blogs she uses to store herself can she open her heart and tell the fragility that is still sealed:
Because
is almost forced and difficult to control
I will keep thinking about that thing
I gradually understand
4
Some fragments of my soul were left at the scene of the trauma
I have been stuck there
My life is stuck
I can't go anywhere
What was the buried past?
In a car accident, the heroine woke up again, as if she had entered a parallel space and time.
and she found herself involved in a murder case.
Her middle school teacher Xie Zhizhong ( Chen Yiwen decoration) was killed. The drama
started the mode of suspense drama, and followed the heroine to find the truth about the teacher being killed and her unknown trauma.
(p.s. The following involves serious spoilers. Those who mind, please be cautious when declining.)
When I saw this, I thought it would be a suspenseful reasoning + fantasy setting similar to " Want to See You ".
But the more you look back, you will find it.
In fact, the structure of the series is based on some traumatic sequelae.
Here we need to introduce a psychological term: " dissociation ".
means that the patient will "disintegrate in the function of memory, self-awareness or cognition. The cause is usually great stress or extremely deep trauma." (Source: Wikipedia )
parallel space-time.
is actually the world imagined when the heroine fell into a dissociated state.
There I forgot the trauma, and even my work, family and friends.
The drama is based on the heroine chasing the murderer and retrieving her lost memories. She takes the audience step by step to reach that painful experience, and understands Lin Chenxi who is keeping people from thousands of miles away.
So, the most suffocating scene in the whole play is the scene where Lin Chenxi was sexually assaulted by a teacher.
The teacher forced her to hold her down, pushed her down, pressed her on the sofa, and said to her:
"Perd to be patient with . "
Lin Chenxi was stunned in extreme pain.
At this time, the teacher's wife happened to go home by buying vegetables, witnessing everything, and her face was shocked, and then?
did not make any sound, and it was not blocked.
She gently covered the door.
Turn on the radio to play music and start doing housework as if nothing happened.
plays an anti-war song "Where Are All the Flowers Going" that sounds light and actually shows cruelty.
When will they understand where the tombs are all gone, how long time passes, where the tombs are all gone, it's been a long time ago, where the tombs are all gone,
They are all covered with flowers
Oh, when will they know that the flowers are all gone
Why did they choose this song?
I remembered the author of " Fang Siqi's First Love Paradise ", Lin Yihan , and said this:
"The largest massacre in human history was Fang Siqi-style rape."
She used the massacre during the Second World War to compare the cruelty of sexual violence.
And when the teacher's wife plays this song blindly, you will understand that painful irony.
Another person, "dead in war".
This is the first one that "She and Her Her" touched on and is also the most core issue in the whole play.
Powerful sexual assault.
What is "power sexual assault"?
In Taiwan's Criminal Law Regulations, there is a crime called "use power to sexual intercourse or indecent assault ".
refers to the victim having sexual intercourse or obscene acts with the perpetrator in a relationship with unequal power, such as superiors and subordinates in the workplace, teachers and students in schools, doctor-patient relationships in hospitals, etc.
Someone may argue that it is possible for students to fall in love with the teacher.
But in fact, many studies have shown that once the power in is not equal, it is difficult for the weak to maintain 100% autonomy.
Just as Taiwan's Women's Protection Center "Modern Women's Foundation" once published an article emphasizing that focuses on power, not wishes.
So, paradoxically.
In many cases, these perpetrators are even like "benefactors" in everyone's eyes.
"She and Her Her" exploited the harm caused by this hidden sin layer by layer in the first person. When the damage has not yet occurred, Lin Chenxi tried to express his fear.
The first time she was forced to kiss her teacher, she also thought about telling her parents.
, the words were interrupted before they even reached their mouths.
When her parents heard her mention the teacher, they quickly discussed whether to buy something and thanked the teacher for her caring for her.
Then, Lin Chenxi fell into silence.
Then, sexual assault occurs.
She wanted to say it, but the teacher's words "No one will believe you" made her choke in her heart.
What can she do?
can only be silent.
Over-clean your body again and again.
Repeat the fingers until blood seeps out.
Until she could not bear the pain and suffered all kinds of torture, she finally spoke. Will
get a little relief?
won't.
In a society where sexual consciousness is not popular, Lin Chenxi receives not comfort and support.
is a secondary damage.
is a structural dilemma that is difficult to confront after female victims are generally affected by the harm.
Accountability such as "Why don't you resist?" appears from the father's mouth:
This sentence is often used by netizens as a question of the victims
. What few people know is that resistance is not as simple as taking it for granted.
Representative figure of the Japanese metoo movement Ito Shiori , once shared a survey data in his speech:
Because they want to survive
Ito Shiori's "One Seat" speech
What is the result?
In order to prevent the school's reputation from being damaged, the principal used his power to suppress her report.
Rumors are rumored in the school, and classmates start to rumor that she seduces the teacher.
The perpetrator came to Lin Chenxi's home with a strong look on his face, and kept saying that he would not report the case and kept saying that he was really thinking about the victim.
The teacher's wife came forward and gave a "rational analysis":
So, everything happened.
seems to have never happened.
Only Lin Chenxi was left alone, facing it alone for twenty years in a traumatic state.
This kind of terror of the joint siege of several parties is completely revealed in the fact that everyone is "lucky" about her memory loss.
Lin Chenxi lost her memory after entering the dissociation state.
And in that world, what are the reactions of people around you?
Everyone hopes that she doesn’t think about it.
Everyone tacitly spoke silently about her wounds.
Everyone thinks that covering the scar is the best for her.
No one thought that a scar must be healed, but in fact, it must be faced first.
Escape often only brings greater harm.
In addition to exploring the main plot of powerful sexual assault, "She and Her" also involves a lot of gender issues on the sidelines.
For example, digital sexual violence similar to the N room incident.
Lin Chenxi's high school friend Yang Jiaying (Wen Zhenling decoration) accidentally found her sex video sent to the group to others to see.
The image soon leaked out, and everyone knew that people around her humiliated her slut.
Such as Workplace sexual harassment .
airborne executive Danny ( Wu Kangren played) , various obscene actions against the arrogant Lin Chenxi, sliding back, forced kissing, and even attempted rape.
Wu Kangren plays a bad guy so bad. I saw it so many times that I wanted to rush into the screen to hit him
For example, unspoken rules in the workplace .
A good-looking female employee should be married to join the company to avoid trouble after joining the company.
and within the company, the normalized rights trading .
There are occasions for customers to socialize, senior management will ask if any female employees at the grassroots level are willing to go and have a meal.
is called providing employees with benefits of "earning extra money", but in fact, it treats female employees as sexual tools to customers. The topics of
are not limited to female groups.
For example, if a male character is installed, click it out.
Men without power are also subject to structural oppression from patriarchal society.
He will also go to social events and accompany him, because this is an effective means for lower-level employees like him to accumulate contacts.
This drama has a high score of 8.4, mainly because of this.
It reproduces the experience of a girl after being sexually assaulted.
reproduces various systems such as family, school, and justice, and how to shape the victim's trauma layer by layer.
At the same time, it extends its tentacles to those realistic pain points that resonate with everyone.
However, after saying that it is worthy of affirmation, I still have a "but" to say.
I still have to talk about the Taiwanese dramas that have made us "look at afar" in terms of themes in recent years.
, especially in 2019, can be called the year of "Taiwan Drama Revival".
local market, there is the " Vulgar Girls' Cultivation Record " made by Taiwan CTV, and 160,000 people on Douban scored a high score of 9.2.
overseas market, and also showed off its skills in streaming media. HBO Asia launched " The Distance of Us and Evil ", and FOX has "Want to See You".
has diverse themes, high scores, and is full of boldness.
In this case, Netflix is also aware of it.
It was not until 2020 and 2021 that we won the championship with "Who is the Victim" and "The Lights Come on".
Netflix These two works have one thing in common.
That is, in addition to following the topics that are popular in society, they are all suspense dramas.
"Reality and Visibility" juxtaposition seems to have become Netflix's popular model.
So 2022's "She and Her Hers".
We see the extension of the pattern:
shell, which still focuses on suspense dramas. Inside, it is covered with female issues.
However, this pattern is not always applicable.
While demanding typological entertainment, it also requires serious discussion on the impression that women's infringement caused by separation, it is a bit "four-like".
In addition to "suspense for suspense", it is also rigidly implanted for the sake of the issue.
For example, the two best friends of the heroine, the two branches actually have nothing to do with the main story, just like a sub-show that was separated. Their purpose is basically to accommodate more hot spots.
So Uncle Meow also had doubts when he was watching the show. There are so many gender topics that seem to be pursuing KPIs. How sincere is the creator?
This mode makes this drama.
As soon as the characters gave way to expression and plot advancement, most characters were portrayed flat and symbolically.
talks about the two main male characters.
does not break away from the binary opposition character:
Perfect man VS The ultimate scumbag.
The heroine's boyfriend always cared for and tolerated her, and healed like Dabai's reincarnation. The male colleague of the heroine is extremely misogynistic, combining domestic violence against his wife and sexual harassment of his colleagues, which is so bad that it makes people grit their teeth.
Secondly, there are multiple angles to explore the dilemma of women, but there is no in-depth discussion.
Such as the most unacceptable ending setting in the play.
A bowl of "big reconciliation" chicken soup.
Lin Chenxi reunited with her high school friends who had hurt her. They laughed and hugged.
She reconciled with the family that had never stood firmly on her side.
Even the characters involved in the case who appear in the series, sooner or later, all show the goodness of human nature.
The plot of Master's wife is also to satisfy the audience's pleasure of watching the drama
But for girls who are suffering from trauma, how can reconciliation come so "easy"?
Those "accomplices" who have been perpetrators can really do all the people to be kind? The ending of
is so ideal that people even let go of their anger.
The final step taken by this series is to focus on the victims and find themselves again, maybe that's right.
but.
There is a saying in Lin Yihan's "Fang Siqi's First Love Paradise":
I am reading novels now. If I read a good ending of rewarding good and punishing evil, I will cry. I would rather everyone admit that there are some pains in the world that cannot be reconciled.
to admit the pain of inability to reconcile, perhaps only by maintaining the resentment that should be.
This world is not that bad.
but it is not that beautiful either.
People have long been used to forgetting.
is also used to keeping silent and even tired of it under the round of accusations.
All we can change is ourselves.
So.If there is a next one, please fight back against reality more solidly and without compromise.
Only in this way can girls see the real dawn of hope.
