Abstract

Ovaj rad analizira konstrukciju idealiziranih rodnih obrazaca koji postaju centralni zadatak žena u Jugoslavenskom patrijarhatu, koji se dakako zrcali i na filmsku umjetnost. Koristeći metode kvalitativne analize sadržaja i analize narativa, filmove sam smišljeno selektirala a njihova je poveznica specifična tematika temeljena na istraživačkim pitanjima koje sam htjela istražiti. Istraživanje je podijeljeno kroz četiri istraživačke teze a analizirano je deset filmova. Prvo istraživačko pitanje ticalo se generalnog prikaza žene kao objekta. Njena sloboda, seksualnost, društvena i politička participacija stigmatizirana je a hijerarhija rodnih autoriteta predstavljat će male gaze kao jedini važan u filmskim naracijama. Drugo istraživačko pitanje ticat će se nametnutih konstrukcijskih obrazaca na margini društva i politički nesigurnim situacijama, kakva je bila 1948. godina u Jugoslaviji. U ovim situacijama ženska zavisnost o muškarcu je veća upravo kao i rodna segregacija. Razumljivo, svako odstupanje od normi balkanskog patrijarhata dovest će do rigoroznih kazni ili smrti. Sljedeće istraživačko pitanje problematizirat će majčinstvo, kao najreprezentativniju nametnutu normu hegemonijskog maskuliniteta. Nadalje, analiza će pokazati kako heroinom postaje upravo ona protagonistica koja spoznaje, prihvaća i oslobađa se vizualnih matrica podređenosti žene u izrazito krutom i surovom patrijarhatu na Balkanu. Zaključno, same naracije odabranih filmova direktno će kritizirati deklaracijom zajamčenu emancipaciju i ravnopravnost žena i muškaraca koja je bila ispunjena samo u teoriji “besklasnog i jednakog” društva Socijalističke Jugoslavije.

Abstract (english)

This paper analyzes the construction of idealized gender patterns that become the central task of women in the Yugoslav patriarchy, which is of course also reflected in the cinematography. Using the methods of qualitative content analysis and narrative analysis, I intentionally selected the films, and their link is a specific topic based on the research questions I wanted to investigate. The research is divided into four research theses and ten films were analyzed. The first research question concerned the general representation of women as objects. Her freedom, sexuality, social and political participation are stigmatized, and the hierarchy of gender authorities will represent male gaze as the only important one in movie narratives. The second research question will concern imposed construction patterns on the margins and politically uncertain situations, such as 1948. in Yugoslavia. In these situations, women's dependence on men is becoming bigger, just like gender segregation. Understandably, any deviation from the norms of the Balkan patriarchy will lead to rigorous punishments or death. The next research question will problematise motherhood, as the most representative imposed norm of hegemonic masculinity. Furthermore, the analysis will show how the heroine becomes precisely the protagonist who recognizes, accepts and frees herself from the visual matrices of women's subordination in the extremely rigid and cruel patriarchy in the Balkans. In conclusion, the narratives of the selected films will directly criticize the emancipation and equality of women and men guaranteed by the declaration, which was fulfilled only in the theory of a "classless and equal" society of Socialist Yugoslavia.
