2013 / Germany / Crime Story / Shirley Homan / Antonia Campbell-Hughes, Jamies Butler

In the movie, the perpetrator is a relatively quiet person in normal life, who is very disciplined. Because the little girl smiles, he will give birth to a kidnapping girl and imprison her in the basement for a long time. The English phrase "obey me" is always repeated in the film, showing that the offender has a strong desire to control, and even changed the girl’s name, saying that the kidnapped person has no family and only him in her world, and the girl has no privacy in front of the offender. In any case, there is no personality to speak of. For example, the offender said that the girl did not need to wear clothes in the house. Everything must be done according to his ideas. If the girl resists, she will be treated violently. The perpetrator has no sympathy, compassion and love for the girl, only the sense of manipulation, obedience, and free will that the girl brings to him. What is the reason for him to treat an eight-year-old girl like this?

The following are purely personal opinions. First, because he didn’t feel a sense of identity in real life (for example, his family often said that he hadn’t gone to find a job, etc.), so he kidnapped the girl and made her a slave like a robot. Listen At the mercy of him, he enjoys an unprecedented pleasure; second, because of his inner desire for good things (in the clip, he wants to ask grandma to eat with her, but grandma refuses because of his busyness, and he also chooses to kidnap girls The reason is her smile, it can be seen that he thinks girls are very beautiful), so he kidnapped the girl to complete a series of beautiful things that he longed for. Hmm...I think the main reason is these two. Of course, other family experiences, personalities, and environmental factors must also play a certain role.

Such an inhumane person chose to commit suicide at the end of the film, and the girl reunited with her family. In fact, the ending seems to be a bit hasty, especially since there are few final shots of the criminal. In fact, I think that if you add a follow-up story about him at the end, it may be more acceptable to the public.
