Boring, Dry, although realistic
Both characters lack depth. The story lacks depth. It's almost two dimensional. The female lead has zero personality.... The movie doesn't make you care about the characters. It doesn't evoke emotion. I get what the director was trying to get at. 'This can happen to anyone, and it can be covert, and feelings of love can be involved.' But at the end of the day the story is so blah that it doesn't even feel like a cautionary tale. The movie leaves you with nothing.
If you want to understand the gut wrenching reality of sexual coercion, sex slavery, systematic rape etc. Then watch Human Trafficking - a movie made before it's time. And never got enough credit for its gut wrenching brilliant, accurate portrayal of what had already become a little known pandemic at the time the movie was made, in the early 2000s.
