This article takes the 2020 Disney live action film “Mulan” as a case study to analyze the exploration of women in Niki Caro's works. On the one hand, this film uses unique visual symbols and emotional expressions to compose a poetic fable about women's awakening. On the other hand, it is difficult to break free from the "male standard" in the text and the "compromiseism" in business. With the help of this chain from various angles, one can glimpse the contradictory situation of female film creation at present.
