Duality in Ti Moune v.s. Community of villagers

Ti Moune v.s. Community of villagers 
    - "I now belong in the big city"
       When M. Bienconnu asks her to tell Mama Euralie what she wants to do because she has experienced many great storms, and she can give her some counsels as her "adoptive mother", she refuses. She has already drew a line between her and the other villagers (even her mom); she now thinks that her mind is with the man in the big city. She no longer belongs to here.
    - "History has cast our fate in stone."
      "Her fate! What nonsense."
       Lead by M. Bienconnu, all the villagers here must be the people who submit to their fate. They suffer all the things that gods give to them without ever thinking about to rebel. However, Ti Moune is not such obedient person. From the moment when she dares to dream or when she is the only one who steps forward and saves the man, she never submits to such fate. Although his words might chill her or give her a shock, she still wants to go to the city and find the man. She thinks that she is different than all the people who live here.
