I really wanted this to be an epic feminist revenge story and it kind of got there but I have more than a few issues with this story.
Instead of what I wanted, it was yet another “white person learns that racism is bad actually” story. I don’t like that a white woman made a movie that so graphically shows the violent rape and murder of black aboriginal people. I don’t like that their suffering was written to support the narrative of a white woman.
I think that the history of what aboriginal people suffered is an important story to be told, I just don’t think that it needed to be told by a white person in such an exploitative…
