Volver

 The film Volver is a display of women's resilience because all of the female characters in the film endure some horrible tragedy.  Whether it is an attempted rape, a loved one being unfaithful, or a life-threatening illness, not one woman excapes life's most horrendous trials.  Even though the women are faced with such difficulties, they all overcome the obstacles and grow as a result of them.  In fact, some of the female characters become better off as an indirect result of their experiences.  The main character, played by Penelope Cruz, because of her husband's death, becomes the owner of a extremely busy restaurant.  When Peneolope's mother is revealed to not be dead, or possibly a ghost, the entire family bonds together.  As the film progresses, the viewers learn of more trials that the family has endured.  Despite all of these, the family stays strong and continues to grow stronger.
