Controllable is oneself

The setting of the film is strange, and various elements seem to me to talk about one theme-control.
From the protagonist discovering that her drunken behavior would affect several lives across the ocean, she realized her responsibility and learned to control her behavior. Since her elementary school classmates came back, she had the motivation to control her by sending furniture and work. After she slept with his friend, the sense of loss of control made him angry and threatened to control her stay. Down.
The heroine faced her own chaos from self-control, and grew from passive out of control to active uncontrollable, knowing what she was doing and what she should do. Both the ex-boyfriend and her elementary school classmates tried to control others to control their own problems.
It can be said that the problem of women's independence is completed in a twisty way, not dependent on the control of patriarchy, but self-understanding.
