They would be shown to be in the kitchen cleaning or caring for the man or children. Also being shown to be way inferior to men.

Purpose - To raise money and to raise awareness for famine. Appeal to audience - It uses guilt to guilt trip the audience into donating by basically saying if you don't now the children may not live to see another day.

This is hinted just before the reveal by her sitting in the directors chair and this scene is also reflexivity where a text is aware of itself as it shows the characters coming off the set.

When he is with the kid in the park and on his own looki
