FRAMING FEMINISME PADA BUDAYA PATRIARKI DALAM FILM YUNI

Abstract

This study examines how the film Yuni (2021) by Kamila Andini frames feminist actions within the context of Indonesian patriarchal culture. The research addresses two main questions: (1) How are the concepts of Define Problems, Diagnose Causes, Make Moral Judgement, and Treatment Recommendation according to Robert N. Entman’s framing theory applied to feminism in the patriarchal context presented in the film Yuni? (2) How does the film’s framing of feminism relate to the contextual reality of patriarchal culture in Indonesia? This research employs a qualitative approach using framing analysis methods, grounded in Robert N. Entman’s theoretical framework. Data were collected through observation of scenes, dialogues, and visual elements in the film, supported by literature review and feminist theory.

The findings reveal that Kamila Andini frames Yuni’s struggle as an act of resistance against patriarchal norms, such as forced marriage, limitations on education, and control over women’s bodies and sexuality. The framing is constructed both symbolically and narratively to highlight gender inequality institutionalized within society. The film not only critiques patriarchal structures but also offers a space for female agency, allowing women to define their own futures. Thus, Yuni serves as a contextual and relevant representation of feminism within Indonesia’s cultural landscape.
