momia?
Anna is sometimes called "Momia".
What is momia supposed to mean?
In the context of the movie it seemed to be a name for a doll that to the commies was a "reactionary". I think there may have been a "Popia" doll as well. So the
when the commies called Anna "Momia" they were saying "my cute little reactionary". HTH.
Thank you for your reply.
So, there seemed to be a doll called "Popia" in France and the commies used that name to call Anna as Momia? Why did it turn to M from P?
I don't understand well. But Thanx anyway.
My sense is that at least in the Chilean context there were both Momia and Popia dolls - I think both might have been shown in the movie at one point. So only natural that the girl Anna got called Momia. If memory serves.
sharemomia is the name that the chilean communist give to the conservative people, the people that is against their ideology, i dont know how to said it... anna, at the begining was against her father and friends posture, so she was called little momia. is a derogative word.

"Momia" is the spanish word for "mummy". It's a pejorative way to refer to conservatives and righ-wingers. No relation with any dolls, as far as I understood.
