The results of the study show the characterization of the main female character
in the film 'Mulan' (2020) through an analysis of the role of the character in each scene,
part, body part, dialogue, and ideology underlying the film which shows the meaning

dominant in masculine or feminine power. The results of the analysis show that
although the character shows a lot of masculine side, the feminine side is still shown
and does not become a weakness possessed by the character.
