I say "realistic" because I feel like the consequences of what happens to Eden early in the film, including all the things she must deal with as a result, are shown in a very realistic way. I also feel like the character herself is very real. This movie is honest with us, and there is truth about the human experience laid bare here that I have not seen on the screen before. I read some negative user reviews that expressed frustration with the character and the choices she makes. My advice for watching this film is to turn your judgment sensitivity control down to zero and your empathy control up to maximum, and allow yourself to be drawn into this character's journey, which is rivetingly depicted.
