  ABSTRACT: Combining gender theorist Raewyn Connell’s concepts, this study analyzed formation factors of gender violence (in this case, mainly the violence that men to women) in heterosexual marriage in contemporary Chinese society. Through the analysis of a Chinese fact-based film case Night and Fog, this study found that the formation factors of such domestic violence mainly include men’s hegemonic masculinity, women’s attitudes of compromise, as well as the acquiescence in society related to cultural cognition. According to this, several countermeasures were also proposed to be referenced in improving such kind of social problem. Through an in-depth analysis of the realistic social case portrayed in specific Chinese film, this study aims to raise more social awareness and promote further academic studies about such marital violence issues especially husbands against their wives from the regional family field to the world domain.
