FEMINISTS UNITE! ABOUT THE SCRIPT & FILM: Careful consideration and intricate detail was ensured to make sure the film portrays women in a positive light, respecting women as human beings and not objects. Although the premise of the film consists of brutal cage fights to obtain specific fame and glory, it also encompasses reasons why these individual women are fighting. These reasons add to the character development and further enrich the story, based on real women stories matched against very tough obstacles - whether it involves kids or personal gain. The film does not objectify women - there is no sex or nudity, and, although under false pretenses, the women choose to be at this tournament - there is no kidnapping or even scenes of human trafficking. Women in the film do not share common gender-based roles - many times the women are actually in charge and the men are inferior to the women. They are often very strong, independent, and capable characters to which younger women can relate. Although the film is heavily filled with graphic, ultra-violence, the profanity is mild than that found in an American highschool and the film is enriched with a strong story and morale, making it as appropriate for junior high and high school students as popular literature from The Odyssey to The Hunger Games. This makes the film both progressive and revolutionary, two components necessary to reach a fanbase in today's ultra-violent media. Overall, the film examines the psychological conditions of women put under these stressful circumstances, giving them a powerful voice for recognition and acknowledgement, as symbols for strong and independent women rather than inferior humans to a male-dominated patriarch.
