Abstract
The contemporary Chinese feminist film “Sister” vividly reflects the current state of women’s existence, revealing the plight of
“the Other” in a patriarchal society, both within the family and society, promoting the awakening of women in real life. This paper, from the
perspective of Simone de Beauvoir’s existentialist feminism, proposes an existential feminist analysis of women’s existence in a patriarchal
society.
