The structure of Mehrjooi's film script does not fit with the classical structure of cinematic narration. It has neither the main character nor the active "mom" character as is common in that structure. The conflicts that happen to her are mainly based on the actions of other characters, and she has no role in them, and finally, those conflicts are resolved with the participation of other characters. In this article, it is claimed that this alternative structure can be explained by relying on Hegel's philosophy about modern agency.Hegel considers three types of rights in "Philosophy of Right", each of which is related to one of the three levels of individuality. This trinity is consistent with Hegel's dialectic system, that is, The Universal, The Particular , and The Individual, and by examining each of them separately, Hegel tries to show why each of them needs to be resolved in order to reach a model that is suitable for agency in the modern world. Finally, he considers a form of individuality that sees the other or society included in itself. The participation of the individual in the affairs of the society in the way that Hegel considers is not against the autonomy of the individual, but by relying on the two models of autonomy, top-down and bottom-up, the individual who, according to Hegel, always includes the other, finds himself in the modern society. The film Mehmani Maman has features in narration and characterization that can be seen in those minutes of autonomy intended by Hegel; Landlords who, under the pretext of new guests, with their participation in hosting them, become guests at the table that each of them seems to have longed for.
