There are three reasons:
First, detailed psychological characterization.
The views of the young girl, father, and unrelated people on the matter are all too real, which makes the viewers feel extremely regretful and powerless, causing intense discomfort.
adolescent girls. I am aware of my own psychological and physiological changes, some are happy and some panic, I hope to be recognized, I hope that someone can share my little secrets without reservation, I want to be guided but I don't want to be taught. The psychological characteristics of this age are too easy to grasp for a rapist who is accustomed to raping young girls in this way. The innocent and innocent trust of the girl has become an opportunity for the rapist.
angry father. The father's red-eyed hatred for the murder of the rapist and the anger at his daughter are actually strong condemnation and guilt for his failure to protect his daughter. Reading and even marking the chat records of the daughter and the rapist over and over again, trying to buy a gun to kill the rapist, pretending to be a girl to chat online and trying to attract people online... These seemingly useless and completely out of control behaviors are the powerlessness of the father. He didn't know what to do to get rid of his hatred and condemnation. He only hit the cage that trapped him like a beast in a cage, and then collapsed into a coma with a bloody head and a hoarse voice. This is the only thing that can make him The way to stop thinking and blaming yourself.
Father's male colleague, a man who has nothing to do with this matter. After hearing about this, I was first shocked. I heard that the girl voluntarily had sex with an adult man, and let out a sigh of relief, as if she was a false alarm. This detail actually reveals the secret psychology of some adult men - wanting to have a relationship with a woman much younger than him, as if getting such a woman is a proof of his ability. Therefore, the matter of having sex with underage girls is more of a shameful yearning, rather than abhorrence like kidnapping and forced sex.
However, looking at the girl, is her "voluntary" really voluntary? It took her so long to give up her deception and accept that she was raped instead of having sex with a "congenial boyfriend". This is not only a kind of psychological self-protection after being deeply hurt, but also caused by her immaturity. Her "consent" is consent without knowing the truth. Maturity exploits the innocent immaturity of a girl.
Second, the technique of strong contrast and truncation of white space.
The beauty of the girl is like a first-ripening peach, pink and white, and it can be broken by blowing bullets. This kind of beauty seems to be naturally revealed in the first half of the film, and it should be deliberately portrayed to make the contrast between beauty and ugliness stronger. Unforgettable pain.
The rape scene was never presented, only the girl's flashback of the blue wallpaper printed in the hotel and the scene of the daughter being sexually assaulted in the father's mind. There is a detail. For the first time, the father imagined the image of his daughter being sexually assaulted. The daughter was screaming and struggling desperately. However, the last time he imagined, the daughter was lying naked on the bed with a man on her stomach, but the daughter flashed by. smile. It should be the father who read the chat record between the daughter and the rapist, and the daughter said that she was willing, so for a moment, the father subconsciously comforted himself, and the daughter may not be so painful when there is a relationship. In fact, the reason why that fleeting smile appeared in my father's mind was that my father's psychological protection mechanism was trying to soothe my father's injured soul.
This kind of blank space actually leaves more space. No matter how the tragic process is represented in the picture, it is better for the viewer to imagine and experience it. Why is the determination process tragic? When the girl was checked in the hospital, the doctor said that she was taking pictures of her vaginal injury. The girl refused to recall the process of sexual assault to the psychotherapist. All the flashbacks ended up on the wallpaper of the hotel. The only flashbacks made the girl late at night. Lying in bed is so painful that it is difficult to fall asleep, and all the signs are strongly prompting-how painful this process is, the pain is unspeakable, and it is rejected to selective forgetting.
Third, the ending of being cured by hardships.
The help, listening, and guidance of the psychotherapist, the strong self-confidence of the girl, and the reflection and crying of the father all make the misfortune be cured with difficulty and let life move forward. Misfortune is uncontrollable, there is no way to get everything back to the way it was, but to fix yourself and let it pass.
The ending reveals that the rapist was a respected school teacher with a happy family, which is all too true. Criminals don't have the face of a natural criminal. Those indescribable evil deeds are probably done by someone who seems to be ordinary and honest. This is not a reversal, but the complexity of human nature, because Humans are actually beasts.
Finally, Paragraph 2 of Article 236 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China stipulates that whoever rapes a young girl under the age of fourteen shall be regarded as rape and shall be severely punished. Please pay attention to those wretched adults. Subjectively knowing that the other party is a young girl under the age of fourteen, and still having sex with her constitutes the crime of rape, regardless of whether it happened forcibly, regardless of whether you gave money or not, regardless of whether the other party did or not. If you agree, it's all rape! Leave far away! ! !
