Every time she wiped her face with the blood of a virgin, she had the illusion that she was younger again, and this illusion allowed her to deceive herself and spend her tragic years in the sad and loveless years. This is the ultimate desire of a woman, not only for love, but also a war against time and life. Cruel and desperate, painful and vulnerable, she has always maintained her nobility and dignity.
