영화 <녹야>의 여성 ‘로드 트러블’

Abstract

Women’s road movies were an effective genre for recreating the existential self-search of women who were forced to leave their homes, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, and characters escaping from the space of gender. In the history of cinema, women’s road movies have embodied narratives about the issues of women’s reality and the negotiation of identity. Green Night is a film that constructs the narrative of the ‘road trouble’ of the female precariat of the time through a unique cinematic experiment while wearing the shell of a female road movie. Two women on the road experience genuine solidarity and a dimension of love that can save each other. The ‘queer’ of the two women, Eros, who completely surrenders themselves for each other, represents an act of rebellion against the established institutional order, and at the same time, suggests that a heterotopia in which a space of completely different dimensions can coexist can be a place called human beings. These Green Night proposes alternative values that can break through heterosexuality-centered norms through a journey of finding a place. This is because their struggle to find their own complete home in their own way can be remembered as an aesthetic achievement that drives insight and reflective thinking towards gender issues in the reality of the time.
