Female Role Changes in the Iranian Cinema---

Examination of feature films before and after Khordad the second of year 1997 shows that the content of most movies made after this date is in relation to women subjects. The question that raises here is that considering the difference between cultural politics in the two periods, how representation of women would be different in respect to their contents and subjects. Theoretical framework of this article is the reflection theory in sociology of art. This theory is based on considering art as a mirror, which reflects social characteristics of a given society. The method is documentary using the technique of quantitative content analysis. Our hypothesis is that “there is a meaningful difference between representation of women in two periods before and after Khordad the second”.--- 1376 . 76 . . . " ". . : . 1376 .
