Sažetak
Post-Yugoslav cinema represents traditional, conservative Balkan societies in which a woman's place and role has been confined to the area of home, family, and absolute obedience to her husband or father. Most images of women have been of repressed femininity in all senses: physical, psychological, and economic. This pattern of underrepresented female directors has started changing recently owing to the works of directors such as Jasmila Žbanić (Grbavica aka Esma’s Secret, 2006), Aida Begić (Children of Sarajevo, 2012), Mirjana Karanović (A Good Wife, 2016), Ivona Juka (You Carry Me, 2015), and Hana Jušić (Quit Staring at My Plate, 2016). Female directors focus on post-war themes to appeal to the spectator’s empathic involvement related to the traumas suffered by the female protagonists. In these films the violated and injured bodies serve as a site of cultural encoding and speak in place of the characters, some of whom have been silenced.
