Description

This film is based on the true story of a serial rapist who sexually assaulted over 90 women between the 1980s and the 2000s. The rape scenes are numerous and all of them are extremely graphic (deliberately shot in a horror/gore-esque vein) and instances of oral rape are explicit and show the genitals of the perpetrator. The overall atmosphere of the film is opressive and the sound design is anxiety inducing. On top of all that, there are numerous instances of victim-blame. At the end of the film, they show (graphically) the very first attack of the rapist in the 1980s, and we later find out that the said victim is underage. Altough the crudeness of the film was intentional, in order to show the horrors of sexual violence and even though the graphic scenes were discussed by the director with actual victims (they agreed on the explicitness of the scenes), it was not without controversy. The target of this film is not victims of sexual abuse but people who need to reflect on it.
