Only strength and struggle can survive

The heroine's life is too rough. She was raped by a high school teacher at the age of 16. The teacher was not punished. The male classmate who saw her being violated also ran away, leaving her only despair. Her life was ruined. I was raped by domestic violence, I was sexually harassed again and again when I entered the mine, my family and friends didn’t understand, and I didn’t get anyone’s respect, so I finally fought back. When the movie was 1 hour and 51 minutes, the heroine talked with her son and said After everything, my son finally understood his mother, and I was already in tears. In this world, only by fighting for myself can I win respect and survive. Blindly escaping will only make myself more and more cowardly.
