Abstract

Cinema has become the most popular and influential art form in the 20th century, knowing its influence on the audience, including the female audience, seems very important.  The new research conducted in the field of epigenetics confirms the profound effects on human personality.  Epigenetics is a theory in the field of heredity that states genes have memories to record events.  This research, which is presented with the method of qualitative analysis and using the descriptive-analytical method, investigates the results of the conducted research, epigenetics, cinema on the vulnerability of women cinema audience and finally the possibility of transferring these roles including passivity and personality traits to generations.  Traits to different future generations.  The results of the analysis of the two selected target films from two different decades of Iranian cinema show that when a person is exposed to watching films in which women are shown as a passive being without decision-making power, her mind and consequently her character is significantly affected, and ultimately leads to more passivity.
