This material is not recommended reading for persons who have not undergone at least once in a lifetime feeling love for a woman.
last month of 2010. One of my Cinema evening and today I am face to face with Stockholm. Not without a share of skepticism (thriller is not my genre), including just bought the film "The man who hated women" - the first of a trilogy "Millennium" Swedish writer Stieg Larsson, which I have to somehow lost sight of the circumstances and, frankly, did not read. As it turned out, the film will be the strongest film impression of the past year.
not words betray the terror that you experience while sitting in front of the screen, knowing that you are ten times farther from reality than the characters in the movie that all the unfolding a movie a hundred times life of your nightly vigils. And believe me, there's something changed in the face: life is much harder than we see and hear ....
On the agenda of the day - a captivating story of gender inequality and discrimination against women in Sweden. Yes, in Sweden, the Convent of equality and fraternity. Larsson reveals the underside of the painful relationship of inadequate men to women. He does not resort to metaphors, like a man, it is logical and consistent, he reveals the weak points of modern "democracy": violence against women, discrimination, sex trafficking and the stigmatization of women who are victims of rape. Delicately built and details researched the subject but also a brilliant work of Swedish actors totally make up for the lack of special effects that the mass-thriller, of course, is not typical, for even very characteristic of Scandinavian cinema.
I decided to describe these thoughts, not only because they said the film struck me as fascinating, but rather because he had somehow helped me to see that there is always a way out, not even in our best of worlds, full of freaks and geeks.
those who are unfortunate randomness is not familiar with the term "femicide", to inform you that this is one of the most common phenomena of our era. For reasons which I will discuss later, it remained for a long time not seen the public.
This new word was first used in England, a team of writers, to denote an increasing number of killings, torture and acts of violence perpetrated by men against women and girls. Here, for clarity, can be etymological parallel: "femicide" - the "genocide". Later, in the 20 century, with more than a century, a clear scent of emancipation, the researchers femicide Radford and Russell, the evil critics of feminism, proved that the nature of femicide is diverse and depends on the cultural, economic and social development, although it has a common root cause - Machismo.
As such, this phenomenon manifests itself in many forms, beginning with serial and mass murders of women, to homophobic crime and murder husbands of their wives. All of the above has a close relationship with progressive feminism, where the maturing woman's self-sufficiency in the perception of male still dominant, half of humanity is repressive social factor. Men of the last forces are trying to keep his shaky position, seek to control women, especially those that are obviously superior to them in a particular context.
ironic that women in most cases, are most at risk are not somewhere, and in his own house, in a territory traditionally considered - especially in literature nefeministskoy - Woman's rightful place. That husbands often represent "Still Waters", especially for those of the wives who decide one day to change their lives or begin divorce proceedings. However, I note that in such situations, a man often looks the most innocent and the normal of the two, then as soon as it, in it alone, there is something wild and cold-blooded self-esteem, which compels him to commit heinous acts.
femicide is certainly not confined to the house. Larsson skillfully debunks the judicial system, which also plays a "traditionally male role" in justifying crimes against women and refuses to focus on the nature of the offense, preferring to shift responsibility to the male killer in the female victim. Modern prosecution strategy, aimed at female victims, even led to the ratification of the term "provocation" in many legal systems that safely removes blame from the real perpetrators, and contributing to the deliberate refusal of the state of protection of women experienced the male inadequacy.
But back to the film. I'm sitting, watching, and I believe (despite the eerie naturalism is happening, with nothing in life, good, I have not encountered): the author tells us a story based on real events. Violence against women finally came out from behind the scenes. Trilogy finds that even a civil state, as Sweden, keeps a skeleton in the closet. Brutal murders of women and girls are the leitmotif of each of the three films, but at the same time, are the subtitles and from the heart otlegaet: each case is uncovered and the criminals punished (haa, this is where it looks plausible, Sweden on that and Sweden). Lisbeth, the main character of the trilogy, winner and most importantly of all - a system that moves against the odds, however, too high a price.
Each year, femicide is gaining momentum. Statistics Europe disappointing she certainly has not overtaken the U.S., but is chosen by leaps and bounds. Why? The answer is simple: women prefer silence. Until now. Yes, there are those that have chosen financial autonomy and the absence of permanent relationships. But the lack of desire to love - is the other extreme. Naturally, this also leads to aggression on the part stung by poor men who can not now nor have, nor even to belong.
output is always
Three films or 7 hours of fighting a fragile girl against the herd bastards. That out of all this I can conclude? Probably not always silent - an ally of power and justice. While every woman not learn to express themselves openly, consistently and without compromise, the world will continue to be masculine, in a bad sense of the word.
That measure of cruelty and injustice, you can make one person - nothing compared to how many can stand it, touching on a daily basis with the cruelty and injustice, the whole nation. Silence and violence can live forever.
PS There will be a bad mood, watch "Millennium", the girl - James Bond (especially in the European version) sure you will inspire. And another thing: this article was not funny monologue feminists. I love men, but only those who behave like men and that can be strong, while remaining children.
