Hidden meanings in Film noir: A CALL GIRL - The blindness of fools

The stark truth about sexual enslavement is portrayed in this movie, as Aleksandra's life is at risk for working independently. The movie also portrays the 'fools' in society who are oblivious to the true system of things in regards to the enslavement and entrapment of women. 

Here are some themes you may not have noticed in the movie.  

• Sometimes fools die: In the opening scene a politician dies in an hotel room before he's able to have sex with Alexandra. This is symbolic of the bonds of entrapment which are set to kill fools (the uninitiated) from having access to the sweetness of women. 

• The blindness of lovers: The blindness of lovers is symbolized by a guy who's always begging Aleksandra for love, and Aleksandra's father who appears to be oblivious of all that's going on. First, he reads a newspaper article about the politician who died in a hotel room to Aleksandra without knowing that she is the prostitute who's wanted by the police due to the incident.
  Aleksandra's father also has an argument with his dear friend regarding the purity of his daughter, but his friend later requests for Aleksandra's services as a prostitute. This is entirely oblivious to her father and it symbolizes the fake friendships and betrayals common in society. The broken hearted and the fools in society are even best friends with the same people who enslave or entrap the woman that they love.
  Aleksandra's lover also claims in regret that he divorced his wife for a whore (Aleksandra). This just goes to show the extent of ignorance because most people think the grass is greener on the other side. Furthermore, he wouldn't know if his wife was once worse than Aleksandra. 

• The sacrifice of a father: The movie symbolizes her father's sacrifices to cater to her needs by giving her what he can for her accommodation and studies. However, he's oblivious to the fact that she is even richer than he is from her sexual activities. 

• A web of lies: 'Edo must not know' - Edo is the name of Aleksandra's father, and Aleksandra is being blackmailed to having sex for free by his best friend, while she begs him that he mustn't tell Edo. However, Edo has already been told by Aleksandra's lover who listened to her voice messages. This just helps to symbolize the futility of entrapped women trying to hide the truth from the fools. The fools however find it difficult to handle the truth, and this is expressed by Edo's naivety and emotional outbursts. 

• The bonds on confession: The movie symbolizes that women are bonded to not confess to fools. Aleksandra's lover begs her to tell him what is wrong but she doesn't say. This is in acknowledgement of the general claim that 'ignorance is bliss'. However, the truth can be liberating, and only the truth can truly set women free from entrapment practices. In reality, it is better to say the truth than to be found out, just like Aleksandra's lover found out by listening to her phone messages. 

• The bonds on sexual slavery: The death of a 'fool' in the hotel activates the bonds on sex slavery and Aleksandra is investigated and found out by two guys who apparently run a pimping or sex slavery ring. This is symbolic of the bonds on women to not give love to fools, it shows the extent of slavery and entrapment in its vivid spiritual form and the misuse of the bonds on humanity.
  The efficacy and wrongness of the use of bonds of entrapment is also symbolized as Aleksandra starts having financial problems and problems with her studies after refusing to be entrapped by the two pimps. This is symbolic of personal and financial problems given to the uninitiated in society, as a way of justifying the memberships of those who partake of the wrongs. 

• The enslavement and brutalization of women: Aleksandra is deceived for a job by the two pimps and threatened to be thrown off a high rise building, before she accepts to work for the pimps. This is symbolic of women who's lives are threatened in reality and forced to work for the system. This is not just in regards to prostitutes but a general enslavement and entrapment of women by the system in society. 

• No Benefits: The movie symbolizes that Aleksandra doesn't really benefit as she loses her mortgage benefits, while also struggling in school which could have given her a better chance in the future. Aleksandra confesses to her friend in the closing scenes that the price she has paid is too much and she wishes to just have a normal life. 

• Other symbolism: The movie also sheds light on the importance of having a strong mother-daughter relationship as it portrays that Aleksandra and her divorced mum, are definitely not friends.
  Aleksandra also offers herself to her professor in return for a pass in school.
