Like the book Itô wrote about her experience, this film is a cry of pain inflicted by Yamaguchi when she went public about the attack and by Japanese law, culture, and media.

...er ikke bare en stærk dokumentar, fordi Itos historie mod uretfærdighed i sig selv er spændende og kraftfuld. Filmen fremmes også af det værdifulde materiale, som hovedpersonen på egen hånd har samlet ind undervejs.
