Born into suffering – why are they so obsessed with having children? Handkerchiefs, please.

One of my favorite extreme survival movies. Despite the various absurdities in the plot, I still love it. The female lead is absolutely badass! During the childbirth scene, I thought I was going to lose it, and then when she ate the umbilical cord, I thought I was definitely going to lose it. Later, when she sewed up her thigh, I almost went crazy... If she had died at the end, the person typing this would be a lunatic right now.

7/10. This movie isn't just torturing the main character; it's torturing us, the audience! 🤣 The actress really sacrificed a lot for this role 👍. I've never seen the spectacle of giving birth completely naked in seawater before 🤣. Watching her eat the umbilical cord raw and suture her own wounds really made me nauseous…🤣

Childbirth is inherently harmful. Bringing a child into this rotten world (especially after her first daughter was murdered) is an act of insanity and lovelessness, driven purely by selfishness – particularly the selfishness of the man who impregnated her. There are some good parts, like the animals saving her and the protagonist's self-rescue, that phone call from the man, and the moment she saves herself. Why does that Spanish song have an Indian flavor? This is, in some ways, more interesting than aspects of "Life of Pi." The actress delivers a good performance. Even as a child watching birth scenes, I never understood the overwhelmed emotion after giving birth. (includes people around.)only terrifying to me and it still does now.

It's a poignant reflection on "Nowhere," urging those facing despair during their childbearing years to reconsider bringing a life into such circumstances. A somber, yet thought-provoking sentiment.

"The sea holds no judgment, just the sound of waves and a baby’s first breath."
