Abstract

The film Lost in Russia is the story about the new-age mother, Lu Xiaohua, who takes the train to Russia to fulfill her desire to perform, directed by Xu Zheng in the technique of light comedy. Although it is a comedy, it is a film which reflects the struggle between female discourse power and the background of the times. Throughout the film, all the plot arrangements and role building revolve around female discourse power and their own transformation after the silent struggle against the times. The mother’s solo travel is a woman’s struggle for initiative and her own discourse power. The film is ostensibly about the mother’s fighting for her initiative with a tough stance, but the truth is that the mother wakes up after her aphasia. As a family film in the Spring Festival, the content of the film and the reflected reality are worth thinking about. In this paper, it tries to analyze the female collective discourse power from the aphasia to the awakening shown in the film through three aspects including the story background, the plot angle, the character image shaping by combining with the female image shown in the film.
