《白蛇2:青蛇劫起》:女性主义、性别冲突与身份焦虑

Green Snake: Feminism, Gender Conflict and Identity Anxiety

《白蛇2:青蛇劫起》作为传统民间传说的最新动画电影演绎,突破了传统的以男性主角结构故事逻辑的做法,将女性主义视角延伸至主体和象征层面,在以奇幻想象的超真实主义画面展开冒险故事过程中,探讨了当代女性所面临的社会性别与身份焦虑问题,将传统故事中的人物进行全新的时空营造,赋予其当代的面孔和精神,借以思考和表达当下女性的一些困境与女性母题,无疑能够赋予古老东方传说新的生气和灵魂,将中国动画提升到新的高度。

Green Snake, as the latest animated film evolved from a traditional folklore, breaks through the traditional logic of structuring upon male protagonists, extends the feminist perspective to the level of subjects and symbols, and explores the social gender and identity anxiety faced by contemporary women in the process of adventure, with the surrealist picture of fantastic imagination. By creating new space and time for the characters in the traditional story, the film gives them a contemporary face and spirit, and expresses some dilemmas of women and women’s motif. This will undoubtedly give new life and soul to ancient oriental legends and elevate the Chinese animation to a new height.
