"It is a tragedy in every classical sense but one: this Lilya has no fatal flaw, commits no fatal sin. Moodysson wants us to see the difference between "rich people who think everything can be bought and poor people who are forced to sell everything they have... a culture where you can buy anything, these people, their labour or their intestines - kidneys from India or Turkey..." And we see precisely that. We also see how the export of unwilling flesh from East to West, from poverty to pimping, operates. From Soho to Stockholm, Munich to Madrid, these are the frightened and exploited, slaves to a malign, mass trade."
