Representation of gender through Mise en scene and Camera.
The opening Dialog camera work, "over the shoulder shot" 0:01
This shows that everyone is roughly the same height with slight differences which signifies that everyone is as a team and no one is above anyone showing that women are equal to men. However, the one guy is taller than most and is standing whilst everyone but the girl is sitting down on a bench which suggests that he is a possible leader which challenges this idea by showing the dominance of the man against the woman.
Synopsis:
This could connote the empowerment of men although it does challenge this stereotype by the fact the girls attitude is strong and angry and she fades into the background where she looks the same size as the man showing she gains more power from her actions and words.due to the fact this clip challenges itself over and over, this intrigues the audience to watch as they will be confused into who's side to take.
Mise en scene:
They appear to be in a park, this shows that despite the arguing between the man and girl they seemed to be in a fairly relaxed place, where everything seems fine; this is shown by the fact the other people in the group are sat down on the bench, resting.
Synopsis: I believe this clip is trying to show even though their is dominance in men, that women are just as powerful, but maybe show their power in different ways.
