Abstract

Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis tanda ikonik, indeksikal, dan simbolik serta mengungkap makna konflik sosial dalam keluarga Arab modern pada film Groom & Two Brides. Penelitian ini menggunakan metode kualitatif deskriptif dengan pendekatan semiotika Charles Sanders Peirce. Data penelitian berupa adegan, dialog, dan unsur visual dalam film yang merepresentasikan konflik sosial. Data dikumpulkan melalui observasi dan dokumentasi, kemudian dianalisis berdasarkan kategori ikon, indeks, dan simbol dalam model triadik Peirce. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa konflik sosial dalam film dibangun melalui relasi tanda yang saling berkaitan. Ikon merepresentasikan situasi konflik secara visual, indeks menunjukkan hubungan sebab-akibat dari ketegangan sosial, sedangkan simbol merefleksikan benturan nilai antara tradisi dan modernitas dalam masyarakat Arab modern. Makna konflik sosial dalam film menunjukkan adanya pertentangan antara nilai kolektivitas keluarga dan keinginan individu untuk memperoleh kebebasan personal. Dengan demikian, film Groom & Two Brides merepresentasikan dinamika perubahan nilai dan relasi sosial dalam keluarga Arab modern.

Abstract

This study was motivated by the portrayal of gender discrimination against women in the film The Exchange. The study aims to describe the forms of gender discrimination and to uncover the meanings behind these representations. The method used is qualitative descriptive analysis based on Roland Barthes’s theory of semiotics, which includes an analysis of denotation, connotation, and myth. The research data consist of scenes, dialogues, and visual elements that illustrate practices of gender discrimination in the film The Exchange. Data collection was conducted through screenshots and notes on scenes relevant to the research focus. The results show that gender discrimination is represented through various forms of injustice experienced by female characters, both within the family and in the workplace. These forms of discrimination include the disregard for women’s abilities, unequal treatment, negative stereotypes, restrictions on social roles, and a lack of recognition of women’s rights and needs. This study also found that gender discrimination is not only perpetrated by male characters but is also reproduced by female characters who have internalized patriarchal values. Through these portrayals, the film The Exchange illustrates the consequences or impacts of discrimination that can affect gender relations and diminish women’s status in social life.

Abstract

his study examines the construction of the myth of Bedouin honor in the film Theeb (2014) directed by Naji Abu Nowar using Roland Barthes' semiotic framework. Theeb was selected because it strongly represents Bedouin cultural values, particularly the concept of honor (sharaf), as the central theme of its narrative, yet has never been specifically studied through Barthesian semiotics with a focus on myth construction. This study aims to identify how the myth of Bedouin honor is constructed in the film and to reveal the naturalization mechanisms that make honor appear as a natural and self-evident cultural identity. A qualitative descriptive method was employed, using close viewing technique on 35 data points comprising key dialogues and scenes, analyzed at three levels of meaning: denotation, connotation, and myth. The findings reveal that the myth of Bedouin honor in Theeb is constructed through four mutually reinforcing values: hospitality toward guests (diyafa), loyalty and brotherhood (wafa'), courage (shaja'a), and family reputation (sharaf al-nasab). This construction naturalizes honor through three main mechanisms: the ritualization of everyday actions, heroification without dramatization, and the essentialism of inheritance. Together, these mechanisms conceal the historical and ideological dimensions of honor, presenting it as an innate characteristic of Bedouin male identity rather than a cultural construction shaped by specific historical conditions. This study contributes to the field of Arab film semiotics and enriches understanding of how film not only represents culture but also actively constructs and naturalizes particular ideologies that shape perceptions of cultural identity.
