Abstract

This study examines the representation of the sandwich generation in the film Home Sweet Loan through the lens of social construction theory and its relevance to social education. Using a descriptive qualitative design, the study analyzes scenes, dialogues, and narrative elements through repeated observation and thematic coding. The findings show four interconnected themes: economic pressure, role conflict, unequal family responsibility, and identity negotiation. These themes indicate that the sandwich generation is not merely an individual condition, but a socially constructed reality shaped by family expectations, collectivist values, and unequal power relations. The film also demonstrates educational potential as a contextual medium for teaching social literacy, empathy, and critical thinking about family dynamics in contemporary society. This study contributes a social-educational perspective to film analysis and offers a conceptual basis for using audiovisual media to discuss intergenerational responsibility in learning contexts. By linking media representation and classroom reflection, the study extends communication studies into practical pedagogical discussion.
