Resumo
This research aimed to identify and analyze the narrative, technical, and aesthetic strategies present in the first season of the series The Handmaid’s Tale (2017) that give form to rape culture and other forms of oppression against female bodies, such as torture, mutilation, intellectual alienation, confinement, and physical and psychological abuse. In a context where non-lethal violence against women continues to grow systematically, while hard-won individual rights are being rolled back, this study is especially relevant. It contributes to the ongoing global debate on gender-based violence and rape culture, which gains urgency in parallel with the resurfacing of far-right political movements in contemporary society. To examine these strategies and understand how they operate, a qualitative approach was adopted, using film analysis and feminist critical theory as methodological tools.
