What is this film about?

Does this film say that some likes to be raped? Or what was the message in this film? I don't get it. Very well made though.

Not exactly. Some people enjoy the FANTASY of rape (quite different from the real thing). It would be an oversimplification to say that this is "the message" in the film, however.

Maybe it was about forgiveness. No one knows.

I don't think she was "enjoying" it, but was getting what she thought she deserved, all those years later after the murders she was implicated in, and she might have killed the animals, according to some other boards. Plausible, I think.
