Biographical drama. The style is soap-operatic, with recurring references to gypsy prophecies and assorted superstitions. I find incidents in small boats (cf. Knife in the Water, Dead Calm) very interesting cinematic material, and that was reason enough for watching this. On the other hand, the rape depiction is weird: the pre-rape events in the rapist's apartment are not shown, for some mysterious reason. But then again, this is not an ordinary fiction work: it is more like a semi-documentary, with interviews with some of the real persons which inspired the film, interspersed with the narrative sections.
