An exceptional, albeit painful, film that reminds us men aren't the only ones capable of sexual abuse
Examining the destructive power of forbidden desire and how sexual abuse can masquerade as consensual seduction, it's a film wherein our protagonist becomes our antagonist, where her initial self-confidence transforms into heartless manipulation, where our emotional centre shifts multiple times, where our own morality is examined, where our sympathies are used against us as we're pushed to condone something abhorrent. A psychologically fascinating and morally complex film, in the age of :pound_symbol:MeToo, Dronningen dares to remind us that women can be the perpetrators of abuse just as men can be its victims.
