It has two named women but they do not talk to each other. Two women, a girlfriend and a coworker, do briefly talk to each other but it is about the woman's boyfriend. There is a 2 second moment when the same woman talks to another unnamed coworker who is treating a wound victim, but it is only a sentence, in passing, and the victim happens to be male. The entire cast of politicians or army personnel is male. The only notable female character is literally called "Girlfriend," with no "the" even, for most of the movie.
