The crime drama, adapted from true crime records, describes a real child abuse incident in the peaceful idyllic scenery of Indiana, USA in 1965. The filming material of the film is derived from the actual court records of the case. Feeling suffocated and uncomfortable, the process of watching the movie is very painful, and I will never watch it a second time.
To be honest, human nature is still fearful in the end, and the film made me clear that the view that sex is inherently evil is not so false. It is not out of personal spiritual pursuits that nature is inherently good. From the most naive child, everything is sin.
