Part 2/10:
The narrative kicks off at a lavish party hosted by Carl, a political figure, where Sophie’s disdain for him culminates in deliberate acts of defiance. This defiance sets the stage for her eventual entrapment into a rehabilitation boot camp, a place her parents enlist her in to "straighten her up." The justification from her mother rings hollow; it encapsulates the desperation of parents hoping to reclaim control over their child’s life. This sets a powerful commentary on the lengths to which parents might go in an attempt to rectify perceived failures in their children.
