Abstract
This research examines gender studies by describing the phenomena of women supporting women in the movie Moxie by Amy Poehler and explaining the phenomena of women empowerment in the movie. The movie tells the story of a 16-year-old teenager named Vivian who invites her friends to call out the gender-based intimidation female students receive at her school. The action of the character Vivian in the Moxie in inviting other women to speak together on the issue of discrimination they receive is an action that is currently called women supporting women. This research explains that every woman can choose, and women with different backgrounds and problems can be together to make a change. Women supporting women is an achievement that is made by their choice. This movie is a gesture so that women become aware again to continue trying to defend their fellow people
