The female teacher is a permanent prisoner in this prison, but she is a different prisoner because she is beautiful, young, and has a rich imagination about life. Even such "buildable materials" were thoroughly domesticated by this prison. She can only live vainly on the admiration of her children. When the Spanish noble lady arrives, everything she has is destroyed, and even she herself loses herself. She was shocked by the light shining through the crack of the noble lady. It also means cracks in the boarding school, which will soon collapse. For her own sake, in order to set up a system of living conditions for herself, the female teacher had to kill the noble lady to fill the gap. Here we see the self-enforcement of prisons.
Prisons are nothing but a microcosm of society. A unique system will destroy all good things, and will carry out the destruction to the end. The aristocratic lady and a socialist peasant get along well, which naturally means annihilation for the Spanish royal family. The royal family's choice was to move Miss from the invisible royal prison to the more concrete boarding school prison. Any system will implement itself through various channels, devices, and channels. Society is nothing but a disciplinary device. This is what Weber called "the cage of reason." The philosophical and social investigation of these themes, Foucault makes clear in Discipline and Punishment.
The film is sad, but not tragic. Because the diving captain left this prison, it was through the crack opened by the noble lady, and the female teacher, to gain access to himself. The system will shape the soul, but some things in the soul cannot be disciplined. Think of the elegance of the noble lady, the appreciation of beauty, the desire for freedom and the good learning ability, and we know where the gap is!
Perhaps, another name for the crack is freedom.
