Esther experiences sadness, depression, relationship violence, and a fight for purity in the timeframe of a single day. This odd plot combination seems from a distance like a jumbled series of unfortunate events. However, each occurrence, along with a common emotional background of genuine sadness, proves that Esther has begun to distance herself from her reality
