영화에 나타난 연대의 추구 비교 연구 - <카트>와 <내일을 위한 시간>을 중심으로

초록

We find today in our diverse society the weakening of people's sense of stability and also belonging to a community. This phenomenon is evident in the working class, which has been considered to represent collective solidarity for the past several decades. This study aims to observe how the individuals behave and react in the different labor settings properly depicted in the Korean film "Cart" and the French one "Two Days, One Night", and to examine how they bond together in each situation in order to survive. "Cart" takes the E-land incident. It touches labor issue and gender conflict from the viewpoint of disadvantaged people. Here we take a look at the relations among them with respect to power and gender. An unfair dismissal of some female workers gives them an opportunity to fight together and find themselves homogeneous and fraternal. They bond together emotionally, and go further to remedy the problems lying ahead through collective actions. While the film "Cart" focuses on the unity and coherence of actions among the working people, "Two Days, One Night" shows their divergent positions and points of view. Basically it is a matter of choice between economic interest and ethical responsibility. It gives us the questions like these: Is it possible to sympathize with others? What should we choose between our interest and ethical responsibility? Is solidarity feasible in society today? While "Cart" describes the power and the merits of solidarity, "Two days, one night" questions the conditions and hints at the difficulty of solidarity to form. These two cinematographic works allow us to ask what solidarity means and how it influences our society.
