Analysis of the theme of the film

The effect is really good. But it is really tangled. I thought that reading the film review would solve my various doubts, but I didn't expect to deepen my doubts... The following is purely personal understanding.... 1. Why the ending will say endless doubts. I think I understand, I think the intention of this film is to use this sentence to tell us that this senseless sacrifice experiment is completely meaningless, because the answer is also impossible to find. 2. The final video notes translate the meaning of the title: witness. It also hints at the film's main theme: it is sad that religion sacrifices so many martyrs as an excuse to seek meaningless things. Ending: Your Excellency still needs to die to see and witness the things behind death. So I think that Anna's last words are of little use. The screenwriter may just want to convey the meaning of "witness" revealed in her last words.

Lucie: Is this making you sick? Can you smell that smell? Smells awful, huh? Every time she bent over me, I could smell that, every day. Understand? And it smelled different when she beat me.
