I was made to watch this film in Grade 11 English to look at gender discourses. That was five years ago. To this day, I still remember the film and its horrific storyline. I felt compelled to go out and kill those bastard boys for what they had done to the poor girl. This movie made me angry. It still makes me angry, that people can think like they do in this film and think that it is OK to cover up a rape on a defenceless girl. Shame on the boys who committed this crime. Shame on the community who tried to cover it up. It's a shame that their aren't more heroines like Deborah-Lee Furness' character out there, and it's a shame that this movie is not more wide-spread throughout Australia and the world, because lessons can be learnt and should be learnt from this movie.
