This study focuses on the representation of Islam in the portrayal of women characters in film. In its approach to understanding the meaning of the representation of Islam through the portrayal of women characters, this study argues that there is a strong relation between the dominant government-controlled ideology in any film production activity and the portrayal of women in films.

Textual analysis was carried out on five selected films directed by the informants with a focus on the representation of women in them.
