In this text there’s a different view of women as the main character is Maria, showing the increase in female leading roles. Ina addition she shown to be a “Madonna” through her actions and what she wears- which is a long dress with a apron, and plays the role of housewife as her job is to take care of 7 kids. This is also shown in the last shot of her in a white wedding dress, which connotes she is a virgin, suggesting she innocent and pure. In one shot the farther tells her how to behave, which connotes she is under his orders, showing how women are suppressed by men.
