Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

The article explores the transformation of female images from the Soviet time till the Independence in Central Asian cinemas. The main images of woman of the Soviet East were determined by ideology: first to give her freedom from feudalism, then to educate. Later appeared other images - of heroic daughters of labor and war. There was no space for being just a woman. Only the image of respectable mother was the stable for the national cinemas and still represents the national cultural identity.
