Abstract

Films are influenced by social conditions of any society. Since there is a relationship between entity of society and this fact that some people had more power and advantages than others, it can be said that the difference in SOCIAL ROLE and status of first characters in films can be considered in parallel with real society. The aim of present study is to investigate these differences during DECADE OF 1370. Since “Dovvom-e Khordad” movement has occurred in half of DECADE OF 1370, it is expected that there is a considerable difference between SOCIAL ROLE and status of first characters in films which made in the first and second half of DECADE OF 1370. “Dovvom-e Khordad” movement was a social reality which caused so many people, groups, mass media, political and religious personalities and others to be interested in reaching to some objectives such as democracy reinforcement, responding of government, civil associations reinforcement and active participation in elections. After transformations due to “Dovvom-e Khordad” movement, women were after equality which was accelerated and women took part in general and public sphere. This political event had a great influence on making democratic approaches less effective which were dominant on Iranian traditional society. In this study, these deep transformations and influences in two sexes relationship in films of DECADE OF 1370 as a representation of real society of Iran. In the pattern of this hypothesis that there is a significant difference between SOCIAL ROLE and status of male and female characters in the films of DECADE OF 1370, was followed. This hypothesis is basic hypothesis in this study. For testing basic hypothesis that mentioned above, 47 films were selected as sample among 464 shown films in DECADE OF 1370 in the manner of random systematic sampling method and based on the amount of films sale were studied. The selected films were studied by qualitative content analysis method. Qualitative content analysis is a suitable method for studying the films and other media genres. After selecting samples, researchers indicated SOCIAL STATUS as a basic variable in this study. SOCIAL STATUS in this paper based on Pierre Bourdieu, Carl Marx and Max Weber’s viewpoint indicated by three other variables (economic capital, cultural capital and prestige capital). Our analytical unit in this study is a film sequence. The findings show that in the second half of DECADE OF 1370, women were shown in the roles of occupation, citizen and gender more than the films of first half of DECADE OF 1370. In all investigated films, males have been portrayed in a higher SOCIAL STATUS than females. Of course the difference between male and female SOCIAL STATUS in films of second half of DECADE OF 1370 was not significant. Also the SOCIAL STATUS of females in the films which made in second half of DECADE OF 1370 was higher than their true SOCIAL STATUS. At last these findings collectively show deep influence of “Dovvom-e Khordad” movement on departure towards democratic structures and removing gender prejudices.
