You can really feel the weight of their stories; it's not just about individual trauma but reflects a broader commentary on systemic violence and gender dynamics. The pacing is deliberate, allowing the audience to sit with the discomfort, which makes it all the more powerful. Visually, it’s stark and often haunting—no flashy editing here, just real moments that hit hard. The performances have a raw authenticity that feels genuine, almost like you’re eavesdropping on their lives.
