Abstract

This research analyzes the flouting maxim and power relations in the film Women King (2022), which focuses on the character Nanisca. The researcher used Grice's theory (1975), namely the flouting maxim and Fairclough's theory, namely power. There are two research questions in this research: (1) What are the maxims flouted by Nanisca in the film Women King (2022)? (2) How does Nanisca use the flouting maxims to exercise power in the film Women King (2022)? In this research, the researcher used qualitative descriptive methods. The data for this research was the film Women King (2022) and the film transcript. The subject of this film focused on Nanisca, the main character in Film Women King (2022). Nanisca was a leader or general of the Agojie troops (women soldiers). The researcher collected data by watching films and reading the transcripts of Film Women King (2022). After obtaining the data, the researcher sorted it again to determine the flouting maxim by Nanisca to exercise her power. Then, the researcher carried out data analysis. Finally, the researcher described, interpreted, and explained how Nanisca used the flouting maxim to exercise power. The research results showed that Nansica committed 20 data flouting maxims. The most frequently flouted maxim by Nanisca is flouting the maxim of quantity, which is 11 data or 55%; the second is flouting of relations, which is 6 data or 30%; and the third is flouting the maxim of manner, which is 3 data or 15%. But, in this research, the researcher did not find flouting the maxim of quality carried out by Nanisca. The research results also show that Nanisca uses flouting maxims to show authority and persuade people with the higher power. Second, Nanisca uses flouting maxims to reprimand and insinuate people with lower power. And, Nanisca uses the flouting maxim to challenge and show familiarity with equal power.
