I really enjoyed this movie. It was very interesting and the acting of Dakota was very good. I watched it twice to really get the feel and the point that this movie was trying to present. I have always been a fan of Dakota and her acting in this movie was not a disappointment. The "rape scene" was well done so as not to look too offensive. The movie was showing the life of an innocent girl in a small town and how she lived playfully and without any kind of guilt or fear of anything. Kudos to the director and all the actors of this film. This is a movie that shows how encouragement and determination can help a person to stand up again after falling and being an unintented victim of somebody's evil desires.
