The person that I decided to write about in the movie “Soft Fruit” was Nadia. Sheis the middle child of four children, two sisters and one brother. Her father compares her to a walnut tree becuse he says that she is hard to crack. From my point of view she reallydidn’t have a signifigant role ine the family because she was more of a follower than a leader. Nadia was very close to her mother, two sisters, and even her brother who wasn’ta big part of the family; But like most of the family wasn’t close to her father. For example, while having a conversation with her father and two sisters, her father tellsthem how their mother hasn’t been a wife to him in ten years, and when Nadia laughshe punches her in the face. The Defense Mechanism employed by Nadia regarding the death of her motherdying is reaction formation which is the transformation of an unacceptable thought orfeeling into an acceptable one. For example, in the movie Nadia and her two sisterstried to convince themselves that dying is not a bad thing in order to deal with the reality that their mother was going to die. In the end Nadia became her own person and changed her views from her sisters....
