[SPOILER] So that's the message?

A woman is raped, indirectly out of a grudge a powerful guy had against her. She is shown to be embarrassed and ashamed, and even uncertain about her capability at work, which is probably a realistic effect something like that has on rape victims. But she doesn't do anything about it. Her character doesn't get any wiser at the end of the film. She doesn't learn how to live with what has happened to her. She's paralysed, till everybody who could disclose her secret is dead.

Is that the message the film leaves to actual rape victims? Hide and wait, and put your life on hold till the rapist and his accomplices die, or everything works out by other people's actions? Don't even move a finger to actually try to catch the guy till there's a gun pointing at your head? Focus on keeping out of the rapist's reach, and never confront him, not even to tell him what you think of him? And what's worse, let him add blackmail to rape, so you won't report him?

Besides, she was a judge. She had some power to manage things differently. But she let him do as he pleased, till others stopped him.

And she also fell to the logic of the people who might have turned her down for her "sex scandal". Shouldn't she have said what happened, and that there was a tape out there? If she wanted to make a difference in the world, she could have set the example about how the victim is better than the victimiser. And she could have taught the people who get shocked more easily by sex scandals than by corruption, that rape victims have nothing to be ashamed of, and that she was just as good for the job as the minute before the rape.
