A work of feminist literature/film by Maria Lukashova

I believe that a work of feminist literature/film is a work that is devoted to women and is also based on the principles of feminism. Originally, feminism as a movement is aimed at defining, establishing, and defending equal political, economic, adn social rights adn equal opportunities for women. Firstly, feminism focused on the promotion of equal contract, marriage, parenting, and property rigths for women. Later this process evolved in active campaigns for women's sexual, reproductive, polotocal, and economical rights. Therefore, any work of literature that centers around the struggle of a woman for equality, the attempt to be accepted as a human being cast into a gender stereotype. A work of feminism explains the difference between sex and gender. The protagonist- a woman- does not accept the traditional gender role taht is assigned to them by society. This woman is ready to make her own decisions, to express her choice of personal decision-making, and is ready to deal with consequences of these choices, actions, and decisions.
