Abstract：Department of Cultural and Religious Studies, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong 999077, China)rural film screening; gender consciousness; gender equality; female projectionists; modernity Thanks to the promulgation of the Marriage Law and the advancement of collectivized agriculture, the existing traditional gender views in rural China were greatly challenged by the promotion of new images of working women led by the state. Films, which were regarded at the time as a modern propaganda tool, played an important role in constructing and spreading the ideas of socialist gender equality. In this paper, replying on oral histories, historical documents and film textual analysis, I examine various practices within the multi-media screening space and see how cinematic experiences may or may not have acted upon the transformation of gender consciousness. In actuality, even though the mainstream construction of gender equality emphasized a gender neutral approach based on the idea of "equality between women and men," this approach was in effect gendered. That is because its gendered nature was reflected through the techniques applied in propaganda and the neglect of the different experiences between female projectionists and those of their male counterparts.
