The story idea is great. The acting by the heroine is excellent. The movie keeps viewers on their toes.
However, it does this only by revealing the epic truth very slowly, and in large parts only creates tension by the heroine acting irrationally and thereby creating problems on the side that do not make the story any richer.
Another weakness is that, looking at the entire story, the movie only tells one of the least interesting parts of it. It picks one early phase of the epic story and even there dwells only on a very particular, inessential fault.
Then the movie stops short of the most interesting following phase, except for a few seconds at the very end. This, for me, is frustrating. At least five or ten minutes of subsequent events, i.e. Showing the fruits of the whole effort, would make the movie much more satisfying. I think, if a movie has a happy ending, it might as well show it in full glory.
I noticed a few unintelligible details, so perhaps the entire story was not told in a fully intelligible way. If so, then that would constitute another weakness.
