从20世纪90年代起,中国进入转型的巨变期。对消费经济的不适应,产生了一大批游离于主流文化和体制之外的“边缘群体”。李玉作为20世纪90年代后期成长起来的女性电影导演,将目光对准了这一时期以女性生存境遇和社会伦理地位为矛盾的影像叙事,她始终以女性人物为讲述对象,以女性故事为创作题材,通过反映她们的痛楚,来激发观影人群对当下女性生存困境的思考。 Since the 1990s, China has entered a period of tremendous transformation. Inconsistent with the consumer economy, a large number of “marginalized groups” have emerged that are free from the mainstream culture and institutions. Li Yu, as a female film director who grew up in the late 1990s, focused her eyes on the image narration of this period in which women’s living conditions and social ethics status were contradictory. She always focused on female characters as objects and women’s stories as Creation theme, by reflecting their pain, to stimulate the crowd of viewers contemplation of contemporary female predicament.
