2010s Holy Girl
The reason the Holy Girl was selected for the film
was because the subject matter the film portrays. The film was selected due to
the nature of the film being somewhat dark because Amalia gets molested by
Doctor Jano and confuses it for something involving her spiritual awakening. Amalia
also believes that Jano is in need of saving from eternal damnation in hell.
This film is important because the film involves Amalia quest to save the
doctor and also she seems to develop an infatuation with her molester. The film
is important because in a way it involves the Catholic faith and issues of
molestation but, it could also be used to discuss how the church had issues
confronting molestation in the past, now a days the church has tried to push
these issues under the rug, which should not be the case. These issues of
molestation and faith must be dealt with because if we do not confront these
past issues, they will continue to haunt those tormented by these past
conflicts. The film was also selected because another issue today is a breach
of doctor, patient agreement regarding the issues of feeling their patients.
Janos kind of uses Amalia’s trust of him against her and uses her sexuality for
his advantage. Amalia later begins to show signs of supposed feelings for the
doctor, now wanting to use her newly developed sexuality against the doctor,
who used his sexuality against her. Another important issue the film confronts
is the issue of dealing with sexual maturity and coming of age, Amalia learns
of sexuality and it begins to prosper against the backdrop of the film. Amalia
learns of her sexuality which they typically avoid talking about in a setting
involving the church. This was also shown for the mature, dark subject matter
exhibited in the film, Amalia learns about her sexuality and power, she has.
