Women are represented in different ways withing the movie Headhunters. For example there are three main women in the film which are Diana, Lotte and Natasha.
Diana is Roger's wife and our first impressions of her is that she is living a nice lifestyle and that her husband buys her a lot of things. I thought at the beginning of the movie that she was only with him for the money but throughout the film Diana's character changes quite a bit for example we see that she wants to have a baby which shows she isn't with him just for the money however she seems to turn a bit when we meet Clas and it seems like she is taking an interest into him and later ends up sleeping with him because Roger told her no when asking about having a child. Towards the end of the film we see that she truly does love him as she helps him and tries to explain to him everything that happened and that she made a mistake and that she wanted to be with Roger and that Clas was a mistake.
The second woman we see is Lotte. We see that Roger and her have sex at the beginning of the film showing that Roger doesn't take his current relationship with Diana seriously however Lotte is shown to be a clingy character and wants to stay with Roger however we see she betrays him by rubbing something in his hair so Clas could track him and try to kill him. She then tries to kill him when Roger shows up but he doesn't know it was her and they end up fighting when he finds out and he kills her. She is shown to an innocent character who "loved" Roger but really she was a psycho girl.
Finally the last woman we see is Natasha who is a Russian prostitute that Ove is sleeping with. She is shown to be like a woman who doesn't love Ove but will have sex with him because he is paying her which is obvious because she's a prostitute. This shows Natasha as more of an object rather than a normal human being because there is no love between them and they don't really care about each other and Ove later in the film is talking about buying more prostitutes with the money they'd make from stealing a painting showing women as objects.
Overall the film was quite good and each woman character was portrayed differently and worked out really well in the film.
