Unobtrusively good It's interesting to contrast this film with Elle, a much bolder, or louder, treatment of a similar idea. I think both are good.
The screenplay is admirably reticent, unafraid of banality, and scrupulously realistic. All the supporting characters have stuff going on in their own lives, which we often only glimpse, and which reflect tangentially on the theme. But the real gold here are the performances, which I found endlessly fascinating and believable, subtle, and sometimes surprising - like life.
It's a film that grows in authority as it stays true to its characters, exploring the effect of trauma on a relationship which is not strong enough to survive it. I liked the way we are invited to interrogate the boyfriend's character as much as the man who committed the rape (a rape scene that is extremely well handled). Although some have taken issue with the abortion subplot, it works very well to force the issue when she discovers she needs a consort to drive her home.
It is an abrupt ending (in keeping with the aesthetic of sharp, propulsive editing that keeps the film flowing), but also a proper ending: finally, she is taking a stand.
