A tragedy of two brothers and sisters
hooraychining10 October 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The story is heartbreaking. To some extent, the sisters and brothers (that rapist and his brother) mirror each other. The sisters' parents hurt them and made them depend on each other since childhood. What about the brothers? It is not clearly stated in the story, but I can guess that their parents did not give them a good childhood. The feelings between the brothers are also touching, just as the sisters clearly show in the film. Education in the family environment is so important for both boys and girls and may affect their whole lives. Unfortunately, the boys and girls in this story are tragedies.

The crowd of onlookers in the film twice criticized the victims' sisters. The lens language is very ironic. This is not only a Chinese characteristic, but also an exaggerated expression of social behavior. These onlookers are numb to other people's pain but so curious. Is their performance also a bad response to family education?

Oh, by the way, there are two nude bathing scenes at the beginning and end of the film. The young bodies of the sisters are full of hazy beauty. The rapist's robust body is also full of hormones and repressed desires. This is really an imaginative image language. Great movie!

Social dilemma of revenge
zzmale2 December 2003
The literal translation of the title should be: the Price of Madness. This title is more appropriate because it accurately describes the mental state of the female protagonist. People take laws into their own hand when the legal system lags behind.
