So the point of renting the room...


She rented the room because she was afraid she was going to cry around her daughter?

(but was too strong to feel pity for herself, until she was facing mortality)

This just says volumes about the character, the whole movie is like that. Love it.

Partly. Also to have some time to herself. In such a crowded world, there's no privacy. Even the illusion of it, such as one can have in a quiet room for an hour or two, is a precious commodity.

This is already happening now. People in very, very crowded places will rent quiet rooms like this just to be alone for a little while. From this grew the sleeping rooms increasingly common in airports.

Couldn't communicate or be reached as she handed over her phone and purse, out of view the surveillance drones that seemed everywhere.
