Although it may not seem like it, the movie presents a view on everything that is wrong with the modern feminism.
Emilie has lived her life consumed by her father living and mother committing suicide over it. She has not married and doesn't have children. Now in her early 40s at death's door, she has no one to comfort her. She turns to the only person left in her life, her sister Ines. Ines has made difficult choices to move on with her life and not be consumed by the drama of her childhood and teenage years. Ines has a career, though just as Emilie, there doesn't appear to have a family. In her last days, Emilie rages against the "injustice" of life, though most of the things that have happened are the results of her own choices. Since Ines is the only person around, most of the rage is directed at Ines. Emilie blames Ines as much as possible, for not being more "helpful" with the suicidal and emotionally unstable mother, for loosing touch over he years, for Emilie not achieving more in her life and for Ines achieving more than Emilie has. The movie ends with Emilie dying with no one but Ines by her side. She disappears from Earth as if she was never there. No trace, no lasting memory will be left of her.
