Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a phase difference film that can exhibit sufficient reciprocal wavelength dispersibility. The present invention includes a copolymer containing at least one selected from a unit represented by Formula (1) and a unit represented by Formula (2), and a unit represented by Formula (3), in which 20 nm<Re (548)<300 nm, 0.5<Re (446)/Re (548)<1.0, and 1.0<Re (629)/Re (548)<2.0. Here, Re (446), Re (548), and Re (629) represent in-plane retardations at wavelengths of 446 nm, 548 nm, and 629 nm, respectively.
