The script is the problem. The main character is unable to heal her emotional wounds. Even when visited by an angel, she cannot face her pain and heal her past. She uses booze, sex, rebellion, violence, and moral superiority to escape her responsibility to make sense of life. I kept hoping she would begin the long journey to self-awareness, but her cowardice and ignorance finally became too boring to waste any more time on.
Like Dirty Harry, she sees herself as morally superior to the system. She lies, tampers with evidence, violates rights, and manipulates others to achieve her version of justice. I think she is really seeking revenge on the person who hurt her as a child. The script implies that the end justifies the means, as we are led to feel sympathy for Grace.
She is self-destructive and committed to the rage of victimhood. The title led me to believe that the story would be about healing and redemption. I wasted my precious time watching seven episodes of self-indulgence, resistance, and lack of personal responsibility.
