Abstract

In the contemporary era, discussions around gender equality and women's representation had gained significant traction, emphasizing the need for equal rights and opportunities regardless of gender. This research explored the portrayal of feminist values through the movie “Losmen Bu Broto,” directed by Ifa Isfansyah and Eddie Cahyono. Using Roland Barthes' semiotic framework, the research analysed how the movie represented feminism by examining the characterization of its female protagonists, including Bu Broto, Mbak Pur, and Jeng Sri. The movie, adapted from a TV series and set in a traditional Javanese context, was notable for its strong female characters who challenged societal norms. This research employed qualitative research methods, including detailed scene analysis and character examination, to investigate how these characters embodied feminist ideals. The analysis focused on various feminist theories, including Radical Feminism; Marxist and Socialist Feminism; Liberal Feminism; Black Feminism; and Postmodern Feminism, to understand how the movie's narrative reflected and critiqued traditional gender roles. The findings revealed that “Losmen Bu Broto” presented a nuanced portrayal of feminist values, illustrating women's strength, independence, and resistance to patriarchal structures. Through its characters' appearances, dialogues, and actions, the movie navigated the intersection of feminism and Javanese culture, highlighting both the challenges and advancements in the representation of women. This research contributed to the broader discourse on feminism in media by providing a comprehensive examination of how feminist ideologies were depicted and challenged within a culturally specific context

Abstract

The study aims to analyse the relationship between creative thinking and students' English achievement at MTs Al Falah Toroh. This research employed a quantitative correlational design to investigate the relationship between two variables. The sample consisted of 70 students, selected through a random sampling technique to ensure fairness and representativeness. Data on creative thinking ability were collected using a questionnaire adapted from Dr. Khumar and Dr. Holman, which produced an average score of 67. Meanwhile, students’ English achievement scores were taken from their first-semester report cards, with an average score of 83.83, rounded up to 84. The data were analysed using the Spearman Rank correlation test and processed through SPSS software. The results of the test showed a correlation coefficient of rs (68) = .10 with a significance level of p = .395. This finding indicated a very weak and statistically not significant. In other words, the study found no meaningful relationship between creative thinking and students’ English achievement. The interviews with students and teacher supported these results. They suggest that other factors influence on students’ English achievement, such as the learning environment and educational support facilities, had a greater influence on students’ English achievement.
