Abstract:

This article explores violence against Colombian women in Víctor Gaviria’s 2016 film La mujer del animal. The plight of women comes into view in cases of domestic abuse, the apathy of an indifferent society, and in popular language that condones gendered aggression. The raw depiction of relentless oppression in La mujer del animal urges reflection on the normalization of mistreatment and societal collaboration. Rather than putting all blame on the tormentor himself, Gaviria’s film condemns the complicit community as the real evil responsible for forging intergenerational patterns of abusive behaviors. Moreover, the article argues that Gaviria’s mode of presentation—a realistic portrayal of violence deemed excessive by some commentators—is dismissed by them in the same way real-life gender violence continues to be ignored by institutions and communities alike.

摘要：

本文探讨了维克多·加维里亚（VíctorGaviria）2016年的电影《牧羊人》中针对哥伦比亚妇女的暴力行为。在家庭虐待，冷漠的社会的冷漠和容忍性别侵略的通俗语言中，妇女的困境就变得可见。La Mujer del Animal残酷压迫的原始描写敦促反思虐待和社会合作的正常化。加维里亚的电影并未将所有责任归咎于折磨者本人，而是谴责同谋社区是造成代际虐待行为代代相传的真正罪恶。此外，文章认为，加维里亚的陈述方式（一些评论者认为是对暴力的现实写照）被他们驳斥了，就像现实生活中的性别暴力继续被机构和社区所忽略一样。
