I thought it was a really good story about a young woman freeing herself of the taboos surrounding puberty and womanhood in her religiously conservative community. I absolutely love the end and appreciate the symbolism all the way through. one of my faves now!
Hey, so it’s 2025. Can the human race stop perpetuating the myth that as soon as a woman comes of age she’s somehow unclean and possessed by evil spirits? I get that it’s symbolic, but the symbolism is inherently stupid. The whole thing smacks of ooga booga woman bleed for seven days put her in cave unga bunga whole tribe will be cursed. Are we still a bunch of primitive idiots who believe women are the root of all evil? Apparently we’ve completely stopped evolving a few thousand years ago because this ridiculous narrative still exists today.
Good for what it was going for but very juvenile in my opinion and doesn't really fit my taste for horror even though it was a good effort.
Sweet wild coming of age portrayal
Plot is good execution is ok I guess it was fine for what it was going for.
