“Flappers”

This image is of the “Flappers” which emerged in the 1920s. It is part of my screenplay in the middle of my film. I choose to include this female liberation movement because it is a turning point for women in which they break out of the norm and express themselves through their clothes and sexual behavior. I want my audience to get the feeling of freedom and the rebellious undertone this movement brings. Women have been fighting the war of freedom since the end of slavery and this movement is the result of all of their frustration and the celebration of being a women.
