In the discussion of sexual assault, we are accustomed to opposing the sexes;
Men are inevitably seen as ugly in discussions.
But in fact, every discussion will also have a lot of men stand up and speak out.
On the other hand, some women sometimes become accomplices of aggressors.
For example, in the BBC documentary "Shame of Japan", the female civil servant said about the sexual assault incident, which is even more speechless.
"Like" at the end of the article. Support Xiaobian greatly, it is not easy to update every day!
The genders of men and women are not two opposing sides, and the real perpetrators are actually the powerful.
The film I want to talk about today shows what kind of situation the weak can be oppressed in an environment of lawlessness and power.

Douban score 7.6.
It is a film shot by a Tunisian female director, who was invited to participate in the Cannes Film Festival in 2017 and was shortlisted for a kind of attention unit.
Tunisia, a small country at the northernmost tip of the African continent, has a territory of just over 163,000 square kilometers, less than the size of a single Province in Henan Province.
As a typical Arab country, Islam is the main religion here, and the folk customs are conservative and gender discrimination is serious.
It may be the first Tunisian film you'll see, but it will also be the one that will impress you the most.
The story takes place around 2010, with the heroine Mariam, a 21-year-old student.
This day is happily attending a secret ball with his companions, carefully dressed and richly dressed;
The ball was secretly organized by the student council in the beach hotel next to the school.
Mariam, who had obviously been expecting the ball for a long time, stood in front of the mirror, quickly changed into a sexy little dress, and before she could draw her makeup carefully, she hurried into the dance floor.
While dancing, she noticed that a boy had been watching her.
Soon the two were talking, and the boy's name was Yousef.
After a flurry of whispering, they happily went for a walk outside.
Soon, the camera pans and Mariam rushes out of a place, her head covered in panic.
Youssef chased after him.
In the dim light, Maryam lost her soul and cried bitterly.
It turned out that Mariam had been raped by several policemen.
Calling the police is obviously useless.
So Yusef decided to take Mariam to the hospital to get a sexual assault certificate, naively believing that the perpetrators could be brought to justice if the evidence was in hand.
As a result, the front desk waitress looked at Mariam in a sexy outfit and immediately showed a dismissive expression:
To see a doctor, you must first show your ID.
But Mariam's bag was left in the police car when it was violated, and the wallet key mobile phone was inside.
Yousef wanted to seek accommodation: this girl, who had just been sexually assaulted, did not have an IDENTITY.
The nurse waved her hand and couldn't see the doctor without an ID card.
As if he hadn't heard the word "sexual assault" at all, he happily continued to nag with the people next to him.
Youssef continued to argue, "Are you just shutting out the patient?"
The nurse also lost her temper, where did she look sick? Roll me!
It seems that the nurse's attitude has been very clear, sexual assault is not trauma.
They changed hospitals again, but the situation did not improve, and Mariam was abandoned like a deflated leather ball.
The nurse said it was an emergency room and she couldn't handle the sexual assault;
Gynecology cleared the relationship and said, I can't see it here, medical identification you have to find a forensic doctor;
The medical examiner said, I can't examine you, you have to report the crime first, and then the police will take you over to get evidence.
See the crux of the matter: after being sexually assaulted by the police, Mariam instinctively distrusts public power, but at this time she must rely on public power to get justice.
That is to say, after going around in a circle, the heroine still has to go to the police station.

In fact, we can roughly guess what Kindem and Yousef will face in the police station: rough physical movements, bad verbal threats, vicious personal attacks.
They ask Mariam to recount the whole process of the crime, emphasizing certain words with malicious intent and looking rogue.
One of the policemen seemed to be typing a confession, but in fact he was just pretending, they were not ready to file a case, but just played with them, and they deserved to listen to a free yellow joke.
No matter what the victim says, the police will let the woman find problems in herself.
Don't always say that the police are not good, you yourself are no problem?
The standard logic of straight male cancer is:
Dress too revealingly, go out late at night, lonely men and widows, steal chickens and dogs, anyway, you are a slut, you deserve to be raped.
Not accepting defeat, Mariam and Yousef changed police stations.
When they arrived at the office, they still suggested that Mariam go home and calm down.
At this time, Mariam slowly lost the courage to seek justice.
The "slut-shaming" also played a role in her, and she repeatedly proposed to change the clothes on her body.
It seems that he also believes that his dress is the root cause of this incident.
When it was my turn to examine the body, there was only one male doctor.
This is obviously tantamount to another injury.
Mariam then saw the three police officers who raped her at the police station, along with her own bag in the car.
Since rape was a reality, the police system soon left Mariam in isolation.
Youssef, who defended him, was taken away on orchestrated charges.
The reporters who claimed to help them did not come after receiving a plea for help from Mariam.
The only female police officer in the police station also left on the grounds of "I did everything I could".
The complicit police department wanted Mariam to drop the appeal.
The previous series of humiliations, Mariam had bravely endured.
The two big cops continued to increase the cost of Mariam's rights defense.
They don't recognize that the justice system is unjust and that the outcome of justice awaits you.
But the premise is that you can afford the price you need to pay, so it is good to persuade you to give up.
Yes, all of this is enough to make a powerless man back off.
But the stronger the enemy, the stronger Mariam became.
She insisted on appealing, demanding that the transcript used to appeal be rewritten, saying that she and Yousef had initially walked by the sea and kissed.
This was made a big fuss by them, and before she knew it, she had become a sinner in the laws.
Utterly disillusioned, Mariam didn't care about the accusations against him.
But thankfully, the final ending gives us a little hope.
After reading it, the helmsman thought that such a story would be real?
I went to check the background, and the story of the film was set in Tunisia before the "Arab Spring".
At that time, Tunisia was still an authoritarian and dictatorial country.
Under authoritarian rule, economic corruption and human rights violations often occur.
On December 17, 2010, a 26-year-old young man, Mohammed Bouajiji, set himself on fire in protest after being brutally treated by police and municipal officials.
This event is recognized as the trigger of the "Arab Spring".
Mass protests and demonstrations that began in Tunisia overthrew four regimes in the Arab world in the following years.
Tunisia, on the other hand, is the only country in transition to democracy.
It can be said that the overthrow of a regime can be exchanged for such a movie.
Because of this, even the encounter with Mariam in the movie is breathless.
But being able to tell it is already a great improvement.
It uses an isolated event in a small way, and the story takes place one night, reflecting the state of the whole country in the past.
Public power can encroach on the people with impunity, while the ruling class is complicit.
They use the big and inappropriate terms of the state collective to defend their own self-interest.
And this extreme story can also resonate with people.
Because every time they are invaded, before they get the assistance of the law and public opinion, many people may choose to swallow their anger.
So what's most important about protecting women and the vulnerable?
In fact, it should be a check and balance on power.
