"Malena" was released in 2000 and as a short explanation from the story, it shows how men sexualize and objectify women, seeing them like a property and the only control they own is due to Malena already being married. However, Malena is also treated horribly by other women in her neighborhood due to their jealousy because of her beauty. She is subjected to a horrible life and gets thrown out of the village.
