Back on the old sub I had a saved post someone made of a list of these kinds of films. All of them were made in non English speaking countries, which makes sense when you think about it since English speaking countries are less likely to promote taking on a system they benefit from. But since the sub is gone that post is gone so I have lost the list.... I only remember one film mentioned which was The Battle of Algiers
Revolutionary Girl Utena is something I haven't seen yet but I'd say the name suggests its about taking on the system.
Antz is about taking on the system unironically lol. Its something worth noting that in western media you're more likely to find people fighting oppressors in children's media than in adult media.
The Battle of Algiers is a great movie
Hell yeah, Utena. Fighting the patriarchy AND the "girlboss feminism" that doesn't subvert systems but merely replaces some men at the top with some women.
CW: abuse and rape.
I deleted previous comment cos I misread what you said.
I think I should just put on hold all the other shit I'm watching and actually watch Utena
It's on YouTube
