The film explores a rather obscure subject, whether to stoically convert to religious innocence or to let oneself live a life of feasting. The film uses more delicate expressions and actions to gradually reflect the psychological changes of the characters. The secular characters and convent nuns are described from a more objective and non-prejudicial perspective. There is no specific good or bad, even if Sister Ruth, who was the last one who stumbled, was also not malicious at the beginning because she couldn't bear the jealousy in her heart. It can also be regarded as an extreme manifestation of worldly desires and self-contradiction. Although the film alludes to religious prisons, it demands a high degree of unfettered freedom, with only distorted human nature in a repressive environment.
