Wildly artistic, with great acting, camera work and sound/music design. The plot is about the emancipation of a young woman (technically a child) from her imprisonment due to being a Frankenstein like experiment.
The protagonist, Bella Baxter, has to handle physical & psychological abuse and though this must be traumatizing for her, she sees the world with the eyes of a kid. Also, she is the only character in the movie who does not do anything bad against better knowledge. She hurts and even kills (animals) but all the time, it is out of childish curiosity whilst every other character does bad things (to her) without questioning themselves.
A major part of the movie are the overly explicit sex scenes and their excessive use. Still, they are not unnecessary nor too much but always develop Bella's character and give pieces of information about the people's mindset.
At the end, a plot point is introduced that would not have been needed in this length as the movie would have had a perfect conclusion before already.
Also, I have a problem with the treatment of Godwin Baxter (the Dr. Frankenstein of this movie) and his assistant Max as it contradicts the movie's message in my opinion: While every bad character throughout the movie gets what they deserve or at least is excluded of Bella's life at one point of time, God & Max are allowed to stay in her life although they are 1. Responsible for Bella's miserable start of life and 2. Still experimenting with other humans and animals without questioning their authorization to do so. Therefore, those two men are more than morally questionable but the movie does not want to deal with an adequate treatment for them.
