This heartbreaking movie based on the true story of the Cho Doo -soon case in which a middle aged man raped, beat, and sodomized an 8 year old girl in South Korea will make you UGLY CRY and scream in fury at the perpetrator and the judicial system.
Why are there so many sick and twisted evil people out there and why is the judicial system so broken?! It's disgusting to think the real life habitual sex offender has gone free as of DEC 2020.
I thought the director did a good job showing the audience the emotional trauma that the victim's family goes through , the ugly part that media has in it, and the powerful message of love to heal. The actors all did a great job. The touching moments that show the parent's love for their child made me bawl.
I'm just a war of emotions right now. On one hand, the story needs to be told to spark outrage to inspire change, but on the other, you just wish people would just leave the girl and her family alone in peace.
This is a hard movie to watch because it's difficult to stomach the true events, but it's one that you should watch.
