The heroine, Mary, is actually a poor woman who suffered from physical defects caused by a scalding accident when she was a child, and was raped by her husband when she grew up.
Rose on the phone, John the ideal lover, George the friendly gardener, the miracle of jumping in time and space, etc., were just imagined by Mary in a state of finesse to explain the unacceptable reality, only the history that was finally buried in the wall. Steven is the real soul light.
At the end of the film, Mary calmly sang a nursery rhyme when she built the wall, and Rose had sung this song on the phone before, suspecting that this was a hint of a fine piece, and that Rose was imagined by Mary.
If this is a fine film, I would say, it is a good film. Two thumbs up!
