If you've not dealt with trauma, you won't get this movie

I'm one of those people who rarely comments on IMDB threads, but for this movie, I HAD to "write up". As someone who did experience a traumatic event, and like Ani, it hardened me and made me appear indifferent and calculating (when I was seething within), I can honestly state that this is the most honest and raw depiction of how someone can deal with multiple traumatic events by "armouring" themselves.

To those who claim that Ani's character was one-dimsensional and unlikeable (you didn't care for her), consider what you're asking from a rape and gun violence survivor?! She doesn't need your "approval" to be worthy of justice and of speaking her truth! Just because she didn't break down for the viewers or turn into a warm fuzzy person doesn't make her less deserving of your compassion, that's just what Hollywood has imprinted on you.

Mila Kunis was superb, bravo!
