In the original piece, the woman decides against acting against her rapists and lapses into religious lunacy and self-flagellation.
That is rather stupid, but at least it makes for some kind of explanation.
The writer of this remake evidently felt shy about the original's out-dated religious aspects, so he simply left those out, only to replace them with... nothing. A blank space where hysterical catholic guilt used to be. Although it becomes clear towards the end, when we see Paulina's "martyr's walk", that the explanation is basically the same.
The only thing that never becomes clear is what the point of this movie is. If there is a message, then it's a terrible one. If there is no message, then it's the most boring piece of exploitation I've ever watched.
The acting is alright. The boys had the best of it. Paulina's character was irritating from the start, so it's a bit hard to rate that actress' job. A victim of poor writing.
