The pace is slow, OK, and it seems that in between both rapes there is nothing that has anything to do with a storyline. Wrong. It does have a plot, but is subtle, one can say a psychological plot that not even the main character is conscious of. This is not a movie about revenge, it is about one woman trying desperate to recover her self dignity taken away by a rapist. The foot smoking scene gives us a lot of clues of this movie's theme. It's about humiliation and pride. She loses her self respect but finds the person who will help her to get it back. The question is if it is possible to recover one owns pride by humiliating the person who took it away. It is? The movie doesn't really answer.
