The female theme has become recurrent in the cinema, in this article, from the comparison of two cinematographics works, Frances Ha (2012) and A Pior Pessoa do Mundo (2021), reflections are proposed on a transitory (and somewhat confusing) phase of the contemporary woman's life: when one is no longer young, but still haven't reached the expected - and sometimes - demanded maturity. As a methodological path, Cândida Vilares Gancho's (2006) proposal was used for the analysis of the narratives, and Francis Vanoye and Anne GoliotLété's (2012) to perform the filmic analysis. As theoretical contributions, we start from four fundamental conceptual fields for the analysis: Walter Benjamin (1994), explaining the narrative; Mikhail Bakhtin, based on Julia Kristeva (2012), with the concept of intertextuality, Jacques Aumont (1995) about cinema and Simone de Beauvoir (2012) on the perceptions of the feminine. After the comparative analysis, it was possible to reach some conclusions that point to cinematographic narratives that portray questioning protagonists in relation to the socially imposed demands on women. Frances and Julie, despite the difficulties, seek an existence that is favorable to them, according to their world view and individual choices that do not always match the social imperative.
