An amazing and heart-warming, yet sad and heart-wrenching movie
This movie is based off the true life story of the pseudonym Nayoung. Although people may criticise the movie for profiting off the suffering of another, in my opinion, the movie went through great detail in expressing the long-term effects of such an ordeal. Moreover, it actually expressed the anger of the victim, the victim's family, and society at the lack of justice received, and highlighted South Korea's weak judicial system. It also highlighted the lack of victim support and the judicial systems mindlessness to the victims pain. The movie was not 'overly dramatic' such that it managed to portray the real sufferings endured by the victim(s). The way that it was directed kept me numb with heartache for the victim and family, yet also warmed by the generosity of the community.
Personally, I found that the emphasis on the long-term effects of the ordeal on the victim and family was the most important aspect of the movie. By stressing the long-term effects throughout the movie, the director, producer etc expressed and imparted onto viewers a message of hope for change in the judicial system. This was particularly seen in the final hearing whereby various characters in court spoke out to express discontentment at the verdict. In reality, this would not have occurred/ would be prevented due to court etiquette. By producing this scene, the directors were placing into the minds of viewers a question of thought as to whether justice was received and whether a mitigated sentence for rape should be deduced due to alcoholism/alcohol induced mental impairment.
Overall a really emotional and beautiful movie. I was really moved by the generosity of the community and this actually occurred in reality which is amazing.
