摘要
Using a materialist ecological feminist lens, this article investigates Nadine Labaki's Where Do We Go Now? (2011) as a truly womanist text: directed by a woman, and co-written by the same woman who is also in the cast of strong women characters. The analysis reveals that although this film is classified as a comedy-drama, it has a very serious, important message to impart. The alternative perspectives carried forward above all by women, indicate that those belonging to the care-giving class are best situated to lead society into a regenerative direction, away from warfare - religious, economic, or otherwise.
