The seemingly beautiful family, in fact, already has hidden dangers. Annie has always been protected by the family too much. She has a strong sense of trust in the outside world since she was a child, and she is also full of self-confidence in herself. In the process of growing up in adolescence, she is curious and obscure about the world of sex due to the influence of female classmates and her own instinct. However, the heroine and her family lack real communication (both parties have responsibilities) and cannot gain understanding and understanding. Guidance, not so much that she disagrees with the mainstream group in the school, it is better to say that she does not get mainstream recognition in the school. When everyone has a relationship with men and women, she has nothing to do with a boyfriend. She needs to be recognized, but things are not. Always confident, she began to have doubts about herself, and was recognized in the online chat with the liar Charlie, so she was deceived again and again in the online chat, and she was willing to know that she was deceived.
If the sexual assault is painful, then the aftermath is even more painful. Many people watched with tinted glasses, including Anne's father who also had a crisis of trust in his daughter. He couldn't extricate himself from the anger of indulging in revenge, ignoring his daughter's feelings. And Annie’s blind self-confidence in herself, or the existence of a kind of self-deception and paralysis, gradually developed in the environment, family, and facts and then collapsed. This family was sinking deeper and deeper in the vortex of darkness. In the end, both father and daughter re-examined themselves and regained trust between them.
When harm has occurred, there is only mutual trust and support, and we can walk out of the dark, which should also be the main theme of the film.
PS: Regarding the development process of an underage girl being sexually assaulted, I still feel a little awkward, because this process is not a sudden, but an obvious deception. Even if she is protected, it is impossible for Annie to live in a vacuum. The director still deliberately Traces of it.
