The Construction of the Female Image and Social-Cultural Metaphor in Tuya's Marriage from the Perspective of Space Narration

Abstract

The rural film Tuya's Marriage, directed by Wang Quan'an, constructs profound and rich spatial metaphors, promotes the development of film narrative, shapes the character characteristics of female characters and completes the unique expression of the female experience. Based on the theory of space narration, this paper makes an in-depth analysis of three narrative Spaces, which are enclosed space, social space and imagination space. It reveals the internal relationship between spatial metaphor and the image-building of female characters in movies as well as the profound cultural connotation. The film focuses on the living conditions, the expression of true emotions and the construction of female individual subjectivity of women in marginal areas, which further promotes the writing of female images in films.
