Abstract :
Film narratives occur in unique and yet diverse
spatial contexts. Notable among them are the socio-cultural
spatial location within the filmic space. A number of
scholars (Khatib,2004; Mennel,2010;de Lauretis,1984,
Kostantarakos) have examined the spatial locations of
narratives. The available research literature shows gaps in
our understanding of the social production of space
mediated by women in filmic spaces despite the works by
Laura Mulvey and (1975) Theresa De Lauretis (1984). This
study is an attept to understand the spatial politics of
women in Adoor Gopalakrishnan?s films employed with
qualitative texual analysis.
