Abstract:
The images of women in Bangladeshi films are traditionally drawn as a good wife
or a proletarian mother, also as a part of sexuality or sexual object. In fact,
sometimes they look like the virtue of sacrifice. Most importantly, most of the
time, the films in Bangladesh are made with a male-dominant storyline. My aim in
this research is to explore how women have been portrayed in the film. To reach my
aim I have reviewed literature. However, the methodology for this study is firstly
literature review. Secondly, watching some contemporary movies to understand
how women characters have been depicted in those films.
